Barbera

Harvested at perfect maturity, followed by a maceration that extracts all the potential and richness of the grapes, without losing their natural freshness. Ageing in French oak to complete and add roundness.

Fruity and exuberant notes, typical of Barbera. To catch all its vigor, best if drunk within 5 years from harvest.

"We like the polish to the tannins here with some berry, chocolate and spice aromas and flavors. Medium body. Smoke and bitter lemon on the finish. Drink now." James Suckling, 92 Points
