Barbera d’Alba
The Barbera d’Alba is a prime example of the Barbera grape variety, a pride of Piedmont. The vineyards, with an average age of 30 years and soil composed of clay, silt, and sand, produce an average of 60 quintals per hectare, giving life to a wine of remarkable expression.
Winemaking is carried out in red, with submerged cap maceration and daily pump-overs, followed by fermentation at controlled temperatures and an extended maceration of 15-20 days. The malolactic fermentation, subsequent to the alcoholic fermentation, imparts the wine with its distinctive softness and roundness.
Aging in small oak barrels for 12 months, followed by another 12 months in the bottle, enhances the balance and complexity of aromas and flavors.
The Barbera d’Alba presents itself with a bright ruby red color and intense garnet, punctuated by violet reflections. On the nose, it releases clear and broad notes of rose, blackcurrant, light spices, and chocolate. The taste is full and harmonious, with a distinctive sapidity and a pleasant, persistent finish.
Ideal for enjoying throughout the meal, Barbera d’Alba pairs perfectly with light and not too savory dishes, highlighting its structure and bouquet with elegance and balance. This wine is a true celebration of the winemaking heritage of the Langhe.
