Vinification and fermentation: approximate 40 days in cement cisterns. First 8 days with frequent racking for strong extraction. During the remaining days the wine rests gently for optimal extraction of noble tannins which is important for a good development and ageing.

Founded in 1913 by Luigi Minuto, great-grand-father of current owner Roberto Minuto, Cascina Luisin has always been owned and managed by the same family. Their seven hectares are spread over prime Barbaresco real estate – mostly comprising two of the region’s great crus, Asili and Rabaja. A truly artisan operation, the quality of the Luisin wines are centred on the vineyard work which is attentive and manual, whilst wine-making is simple and un-intrusive. Minuto is the unsung hero of the Barbaresco DOCG.
