Barbacàn is Angelo Sega and his sons Luca and Matteo, producers of Chiavennasca (Nebbiolo) and the other ancient vines of Valtellina from 6 hectares of vineyard on terraced slopes in San Giacomo di Teglio. The screws are located at 500 m.s.l.m. on sandy soils rich in scents, gneiss, granites, and quartz and are located in the classic Valtellina hills that make heroic viticulture. The union of this family to its territory and the maintenance of tradition, is certified by the personal cultivation of a nursery with thirty different Chiavennasca biotypes. The approach is natural both in the vineyard and in the cellar and this is reflected very much in their wines, which naturally arise not standardized, but different in each year, because each year rightly reflects the weather and weather conditions that for 12 months have interacted with the screws. In this way, thanks to the savoir faire of these exceptional winemakers, every year ancient gestures are repeated that carry on the identity of a people that has always been linked to the cultivation of Nebbiolo. This is how the wines of Barbacan are born, crafted in the true sense of the word and respectful of the terrors of belonging, faithful portraits of the vintages with their oddities and their balances, always different and always a pleasant surprise!
