Cantina Barbera Sei Castelli

Located in the charming village of Agliano Terme, the Cantina Sociale Barbera dei Sei Castelli is the largest producer of Barbera d’Asti in the region, a true benchmark for Piedmontese viticulture. Founded with the aim of enhancing the grapes from six original municipalities—Agliano, Castelnuovo Calcea, Moasca, San Marzano Oliveto, Costigliole d’Asti, and Calosso—the winery has grown to include over 260 members and approximately 800 hectares of vineyards, with a strong focus on the Barbera grape. The name Sei Castelli (Six Castles) is inspired by the six historic castles that dominate these picturesque villages, offering breathtaking landscapes that frame the rolling hills of Monferrato—a land historically dedicated to viticulture. Thanks to a unique combination of calcareous-clay soils, favorable altitudes, and a temperate climate, the winery fully expresses Barbera’s potential, crafting wines with remarkable character and authenticity.
