Barbaresco DOCG Vin rouge de prestige et d'excellente qualité, le Barbaresco a été l'un des premiers vins italiens à obtenir l'Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée. Produit exclusivement sur les collines de Barbaresco et de Treiso, le vignoble est situé sur des pentes ensoleillées à une altitude inférieure à 550 mètres au-dessus du niveau de la mer, ce qui permet une maturation précoce des sucres. Le vieillissement de 24 mois, dont au moins 12 mois en fût de chêne, ainsi qu'une maîtrise technique finement développée, font du Barbaresco DOCG Le Clivie un vin structuré et sévère, tout en étant fin et élégant, caractérisé par une transparence et une clarté incomparables.
