This vintage is comprised of 97% Barbera & 3% Nebbiolo grapes. Fermented with a yeast strain which was isolated in Barolo, immediately following fermentation and pressing, the wine was filled into barrels for a malo-lactic conversion cooperage. Aged 15 months in a combination of new and newer oak barrels, of both French and Hungarian origin, with the balance in neutral oak barrels.
From the Wine Maker – “Rich and structured; bright berry aromas and flavors, plus stone fruit flavors of cherries and plums; which is followed by a lively, fruity and clean finish.”
Pairs well with Baked Dijon Salmon and Caesar Salad.
