Naviglie (CN)

The history of Cascina Baricchi begins in 1979 when Giovanni Simonetta purchased the estate which would give birth to the first label at the end of the 1980s.

In 1996 Natale Simonetta, Giovanni’s son, took the reins of the company to which he gave a personal touch.

The hills on which Cascina Baricchi stands are made up of a base of light earth, ideal for the production of high quality and aging wines.

The ideal terroir is completed by the conformation of the morphology of the hills which creates a truly unique microclimate; in particular, the vineyards face south so as to be kissed by the sun for most of the day and undergo, during the night, high temperature changes which allow us to obtain wines with elegant aromas and perfect ripeness of the tannins.

The company’s approach is absolutely respectful of the environment, in fact in the vineyard it prefers to intervene as little as possible, and always in a natural way, to help the plant when it really needs it and make it grow strong; same basic ideology in the cellar, where fermentations are spontaneous.

The wines, depending on the varieties and vintages, are aged in barriques and tonneaux
