The Vineyard

The Brachetto variety may have originated in Provence, but today it is
grown in much larger quantities in Italy, in particular in Piemonte. The
Brachetto vine is delicate, giving low yields from which sweet red
wines with the colour and flavour of strawberries are produced. The
grapes for Alasia Brachetto d'Acqui are sourced from vineyards in the
Monferrato hills in the south of the province of Asti. These south-west
facing vineyards are situated at altitudes of 250 and 400m above sea
level. The vines have an average age of 20 years and are grown using the
low Guyot trellis system. Soil is limestone clay. The grapes are hand
harvested toward the end of August. The crushed grapes are chilled in
stainless steel and kept in contact with the skins for 2-3 days. Grapes
are pressed in a modern pnuematic press and the must is fermented in a
pressurised tank, but fermentation is halted to leave 5.5% ABV and
approximately 100g/l residual sugar.
