Tasting Notes

This prestigious Barbera d'Asti DOCG represents the pinnacle of Italian winemaking excellence. Its 14.5% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Barbera 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards from the youngest plants located at 300-450 meters above sea level in the hamlet of Mongovone in the municipality of Isola d'Asti. Vinification: soft pressing and fermentation in steel tanks. The wine is aged 4 months in big oak barrels and, for 30%, in French barriques. A wine true to Piedmont tradition, built for age-worthy elegance.
