- MaTurato in barrique -
LaBarbero is our Barbera d’Asti DOCG Superiore barrique.
Its essence and taste is enclosed in the woman’s glance, hidden by the violet hair bow.
The name “LaBarbero” is a word pun between the family name and the italian feminine article that represents the pink soul of our winery.
