Gutturnio Superiore is a classic wine from the Emilia-Romagna region, crafted by Cantine Casabella, an esteemed winery dedicated to producing wines that reflect the rich cultural and viticultural heritage of the area. This particular wine is a blend of Barbera and Croatina grape varietals, which thrive in the clay-rich soils of the Colli Piacentini hills. The winemaking process involves traditional fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit character and vibrancy of the varietals. Given its Superiore designation, the wine undergoes additional aging, lending complexity and a velvety texture. Gutturnio wines have historical significance in the region, often associated with the communal gatherings and celebrations of local culture.
