Description
This Barbera d'Asti DOCG is an intense and age-worthy red wine made from carefully selected hand-harvested grapes. Aged for 12 months in French oak barriques, it develops complexity and structure while preserving vibrant fruit character. Deep ruby red with garnet reflections, it offers aromas of red berries and elegant ethereal notes. Full-bodied and slightly acidic, it pairs beautifully with rich meat dishes and game.
Region
Piemonte
The Langhe and Monferrato hills produce Nebbiolo of extraordinary depth and precision. Barolo and Barbaresco anchor premium lists; Barbera and Dolcetto offer immediate character. Arneis and Timorasso are gaining fast international momentum among sommeliers.
