Barbaresco DOCG Un vi negre d'excel·lent prestigi i d'excel·lent qualitat, Barbaresco va ser un dels primers vins italians a rebre la Denominazione di Origine Controllata (Denominació d'Origen Controlada). Elaborades exclusivament als turons de Barbaresco i Treiso, les vinyes estan situades en vessants assolellats a altituds inferiors als 550 metres sobre el nivell del mar, permetent una maduració primerenca del sucre. El procés de criança de 24 mesos, que inclou almenys 12 mesos en roure, juntament amb un coneixement tècnic finament desenvolupat, fa de Barbaresco DOCG Le Clivie un vi estructurat i sever, alhora que és fi i elegant, caracteritzat per una transparència i claredat inconfusibles.
