When in Piedmont, but not only there, one speaks of "rive" one refers to extremely interesting vineyards, characterised by high slopes that force the vine-dressers, heroic in this case, to hard and tiring work. All by hand, of course. Here, the vines begin to change colour as early as the first days of September. And it is precisely this fascinating colouring that inspires the label proposed here by the Vinchio Vaglio winery. Rive Rosse is a Barbera del Monferrato DOC which, with its liveliness, expresses pleasure and joy. One of the most typical and characteristic wines of Piedmont, in the glass it has a beautiful bright ruby red colour with purple highlights. As soon as it is poured, the surface of the glass is covered with a beautiful soft foam, supported by an uninterrupted chain of bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass. It has intense fruity aromas, with typical notes of fresh red fruit and roses. In the mouth it is pleasantly balanced, fresh and soft. The finish is dry, with well-blended tannins.
In 1959, the year it was founded, there were only 19. Today, in 2021, there are 192 members of the Cantina Cooperativa Vinchio e Vaglio Serra. In total they manage with care and passion about 450 hectares of vineyards. In particular Barbera, the so-called "Rubino di Vinchio", but also other typical local vines, such as Dolcetto, Cortese, Grignolino, Nebbiolo, Brachetto, Moscato, Freisa and Bonarda. To this dense group of autochthonous vines, i.e. typical of the area, we can also add the international vines that are best suited to the hills of Piedmont, such as Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon and Viognier. The vineyards, most of which are on very steep slopes, make the work particularly demanding but, at the same time, guarantee optimal exposures that result in perfect ripening. The quality of the harvested grapes is, of course, also influenced by the nature of the soil, whose mineral components guarantee the production of high quality wines. The winery, on the other hand, is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and modern winemaking facilities, and also has a large barrique cellar, built into the hillside, which guarantees constant and natural temperature and humidity. Here there are French oak barriques and barrels of various capacities, where the wines can age slowly. For as long as necessary.
