The word turna in Piedmontese means a portion of a vineyard.
Turna is a vintage Barbera, one of the best expressions of this grape variety in the Asti area, which has now become part of the identity of the place.
For a long time Barbera d’Asti was underestimated, as if being an everyday wine of the Piedmontese tradition made it a less noble product, but one only has to taste it to realise that it is a wine of great quality.
Sight
It is intense ruby red, with light violet reflections.
Nose
The bouquet inebriates you with hints of not too ripe fruit, including cherry and raspberry, accompanying a discreet and delicate vinous background.
Taste
It is rich, with good length. Its slightly acidic touch enlivens the palate.
Pairing tips
Needless to say, it is fantastic with main meat dishes. The ideal? A good barbecue.
It’s your guy if…
… You appreciate young, light wines.

Vinification (Wine-making)
Method: La Turna is one of the best expressions of vintage Barbera d’Asti DOCG present in the Asti area. It comes from the transformation of the grapes produced in vineyards located on a predominantly calcareous-sandy soil, therefore suited to conferring fine aromas to the wine. The grapes are softly pressed in the absence of stalks. The crushed grapes are transferred to steel tanks and selected yeasts are added. Fermentation takes place in 8-10 days at a controlled temperature never above 28 ° C of which only 6 days in contact with the skins. The malolactic fermentation is induced in steel and the temperature is kept above 20 ° C. The period of maturation in steel lasts about 6 months without the use of clarifiers or filtration that would affect the body of the wine. After bottling, a further refinement is made for a maximum of 3 months in the bottle, before being put on the market
