Beautiful expression of Barbera from a particular vintage of the Langhe that has certainly characterized the notes of this wine. I really like its style, with an excellent structure of classic acidity and persistence.

Tasting
The color is ruby red with delicate purple hues. Intense and persistent olfactory expression with clear references to the red fruits, cherries in brandy and ripe fruit. Pleasant spicy flavors and delicate sensations of wood and florals.
Food pairing
Appetizers, pasta and risotto, main courses of red and white meats, ripe cheeses. For its delicate tannic qualities it can be a pleasant surprise to accompany savory dishes based on fish.
