The 2020 vintage offered ideal climatic conditions for Barbera, allowing for complete sugar and phenolic maturation. This wine embodies the noble soul of Monferrato: an intense, deep, and complex red, capable of evolving beautifully over time. Thanks to skillful aging in wood, the natural vivacity of Barbera is combined with spicy and tertiary notes, giving rise to a sumptuous and very elegant sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSensory Profile\u003c\/b\u003e It presents an impenetrable ruby red color, tending towards garnet with aging. The nose is an explosion of aromas: ripe morello cherry, wild blackberry, and plum jam stand out, followed by elegant notes of vanilla, dark chocolate, tobacco, and a slight balsamic nuance. On the palate, it is full, warm, and enveloping. The structure is imposing but balanced by the typical freshness of Barbera, which gives dynamism to the drink. The tannins are noble and polished, leading to a very long finish with spicy notes and hints of small dark fruits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWinemaking and Aging\u003c\/b\u003e Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with prolonged maceration on the skins to extract color and structure.
