The Histoire
1894 is a pivotal year for Barbaresco. Before that date the Nebbiolo grown here was sold for producing Barolo wine or fermented as a simple table wine. In 1894 Domitius Cavazza, then dean of the Royal School of Alba Wine and lives in Barbaresco, where he was the owner of the castle and the annexed farm, created the "Cantine di Barbaresco Social 'for the' production of luxury wines and meal '
