BARBERA D'ALBA DOC

A generous, full-bodied dry red wine, which is fruity and sapid, made by vinifying the best grapes grown on some of our old vineyards. It is a very-well structured, strong wine, full of aromas and flavours. Fine for serving throughout a meal, it goes well with very many foods, from cold meats to first courses, white meats and cheeses.

Wine making: The scrupulously selected grapes are picked when they are fully ripe, and the vinification is begun immediately.

Several months in small oak barrels give the wine great balance and an interestingly austere style.
