{"product_id":"igiea-barbera-cascina-grillo-natural-wine","title":"Igiea Barbera 2007","description":"\u003cp\u003eIgiea is 100% Barbera from Cascina Grillo's estate vineyards near the village of Gamalero in Monferrato, Piedmont. The vines are 35 years old at time of harvest and grow in sandy, fast-draining soils on a plateau at around 350 meters above sea level. The continental climate at this site brings warm days and cool nights, concentrating fruit while preserving Barbera's naturally high acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWinemaking follows a no-intervention approach: fermentation with indigenous yeasts, a 40-45 day maceration on skins in large wooden vats, and aging in large wood. The wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal added sulfur (16 mg\/L total SO2). Guido Zampaglione intentionally holds these wines for many years before release, typically 8 to 15 years after harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2007 vintage was released well over a decade after harvest. Time in bottle has softened the structure and deepened the secondary character: dried earth, forest floor, mushroom, and dried herbs sit alongside a core of bright wild cherry and red plum. The acidity remains vivid throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNamed for Guido's wife Igiea, after the ancient Greek goddess of health. The wine is vegan, unfined, and unfiltered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cascina Grillo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37842955796679,"sku":"1056","price":41.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/cascina-grillo-igiea-natural-wine-primal-wine.jpg?v=1780186607","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/igiea-barbera-cascina-grillo-natural-wine","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
