This classic wine is an Italian favorite and is believed to have its origins in central Italy. Barbera was the third most-planted grape type in Italy until 2000, and has existed as a tradition for centuries. This classic wine was brought by Italian immigrants to America and other parts of the globe. Barbera wines come in a spectrum of flavors that include strong and powerful wines to light and more fruity wines. The Barbera grapes are widely planted, mainly in warm regions. The signature deep color of this wine gives it a nice, rich flavor. Barbera can produce a nice plum flavor if it is fermented using oak, which will also give it nice and light cherry notes.  Some harvesters choose to bring in the grapes when they are overripe, giving the wine a deep raisin-like taste. Lighter wines created with these grapes tend to resemble fresh or dried fruit.. Many regions still have vines that continue to produce grapes used in this wine for centuries, which ensures that this classic wine will continue to be the perfect tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"rinaldi-joyful-nv","title":"Rinaldi Joyful NV","description":"\u003cp\u003eSALE!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinaldi Joyful NV is made from 85 % Barbera, 10 % Cortese and 5 % Moscato\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraw yellow color, fruity with hints of apple and mint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003eJoyful is a modern sparkling wine made using the method charmat process with the secondary fermentation made in a stainless steel tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003eZone of production: Ricaldone’s territory on the hills called \"Bricco Rioglio\" and \"Valmorana\" and Celle.\u003cbr\u003eAverage altitude: 280 m above sea level, calcareous soil with tufa layers.\u003cbr\u003eTraining system: guyot with a cultivation density of about 3500 vines per hectare.\u003cbr\u003eVinification: manual harvest into crates, usually in September.

The vines are not grafted but through cuttings, thus maintaining, over the decades, the original Barbera characteristics. The vineyard has an excellent exposure and sandy-chalky terrain, situated in Berri near La Morra, which guaranteed the vines a natural protection from Phylloxera and imparts unique and exclusive characteristics to the vines.
