The “Arcaplà” name comes from tradition & from its predecessor, the D.O.C. Langhe Red “Arcaplà” was produced until the vintage 2010, using the ancient technique arcaplé with Nebbiolo grapes (70%) and Barbera grapes (30%). Today, however, we have chosen to give space to a D.O.C. Langhe Nebbiolo produced with 100% Nebbiolo grapes of the estate.
