WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Franco Molino Barbera d'Alba is produced using traditional winemaking methods combined with modern technology. Grapes are likely fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve fruit purity. Aging occurs in oak barrels for a minimum period, as required by the Barbera d'Alba DOC regulations for Superiore classification, contributing to the wine's structure and complexity.
