The Climb
At Cascina Pian d'Or (Cascina Pian d'Or AZ.AGR. Di Barbero Valter), the work of winemaker and owner places Valter Barbero inside every step of the estate’s production, from vineyard to bottle. The emphasis is on patient viticulture, on turning fruit into wine with measured handling, and on knowing a property through repeated work rather than distance.
Today
Moscato d’Asti remains the clearest marker of the estate’s house style, with Bricco Riella Moscato D’Asti DOCG identified as the main wine and the most direct expression of that focus. Under Valter Barbero, the production reads as disciplined and specific: a winery built around one signature language, kept legible through precision and consistency.
Signature
The range around Valter Barbero’s name stays anchored in Moscato d’Asti, but it is not limited to a single bottle. Moscato D’Asti DOCG Bricco Riella, SERENA PIEMONTE BRACHETTO DOC GRAPPOLI ROSSI, Acini, Bricco Riella" Moscato D’Asti DOCG, and Serena Sweet Red Wine together show a portfolio working within a defined register: aromatic, sweet, and distinctly place-based. The wines draw their identity from that narrow field and from the way each label keeps the estate’s style readable across different expressions.
In Their Words “We have inherited traditional farming and production methods, which we combine with modern techniques to grant the highest possible quality to our wines.” The craft statement is plain: inherited methods still matter, but they are not treated as fixed. At Cascina Pian d'Or, tradition is kept in use through modern technique, with quality framed as the result of that working combination. “Our main wine, Moscato D’Asti DOCG Bricco Riella, has been awarded for many years by the international magazine Decanter.” The point here is continuity under scrutiny. Bricco Riella is presented not as a one-off success, but as the estate’s main wine sustained over time and repeatedly recognized by Decanter.
