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. Beyond Barbera d’Asti DOCG, the winery produces a selection of wines that embody Monferrato’s winemaking traditions. Among them, the Nizza DOCG, made from carefully selected Barbera grapes, stands as a symbol of local excellence. The portfolio also includes Grignolino d’Asti, Monferrato Dolcetto, Cortese dell’Alto Monferrato, and Piemonte Chardonnay, showcasing a diverse range of expressions from this exceptional territory. With a strong heritage and a passion for innovation, the Cantina Sociale Barbera dei Sei Castelli remains a cornerstone of Piedmontese winemaking, crafting wines that tell the story and identity of a truly unique land.
