The Ascheri winery is located in the historic town of Bra, in Italy’s Piedmont region. Founded in the late 19th century, the winery is now run by Matteo Ascheri who produces all the major Piedmontese white and red wines, as well as several outstanding single vineyard bottlings. His wines may be tasted along with native food specialties at the family’s remarkable restaurant, the Osteria Murivecchi. The estate’s vineyard practices are sustainable, without the use of chemical treatments or synthetic fertilizer.

Matteo Ascheri explains his philosophy of wine production as follows: “I developed my vineyards with the aim of selecting the clones most suitable for expressing the personality of the vine in each site, planted on non-vigorous rootstocks. I directed for 6 years the Viticultural Experimentation Center for the Piedmont Region. This experience has allowed me to work in close contact with the research world and to make optimum use of the results obtained in recent years. Beyond the choice of plant materials, we have developed particular cultivation techniques for every phase of the vine’s vegetative cycle, and our own style of soil management. In the winery, we vinify our grapes without the aid of too much technology. We don’t use roto-fermenters, must concentrators, reverse osmosis filters, micro-oxygenators and similar amenities. I want to make natural wines, with concentration derived from the vineyard and the qualities of balance, elegance and finesse.”

A taut red, with hay and grass aromas giving way to cherry, strawberry, earth and iron flavors. This has all the components in the right place, with a firm structure and lightly astringent finish. Shows fine harmony and length. Best from 2026 through 2042. 3,350 cases made, 800 cases imported.

With a really fun retro-looking label, the Ascheri 2019 Barolo shows a classic playlist of Nebbiolo aromas with redcurrant, iris, rusty nail and licorice. The wine sits well on the palate, even at this young stage, thanks to fresh acidity and integrated tannins. This is a good-looking bottle for near and medium-term consumption. Fruit is blended from La Morra, Verduno and Serralunga d'Alba.
