Domaine 460 Casina Bric | Barolo DOCG is a refined red wine made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes sourced from high-altitude vineyards (420–500 m) in the Barolo and La Morra communes. Hand-harvested in early October, it undergoes traditional long maceration and fermentation before aging in large oak casks for 18–24 months, followed by cement and bottle maturation—resulting in a well-structured, elegant Barolo that balances power with finesse.
