Barbaresco Riserva DOCG
Nebbiolo
Red wine
Vinification on skins: eight/ten days fermentation with floating cap followed by twenty/thirty days maceration with submerged cap; daily pumping over. Malolactic fermentation is carried out in full at a controlled temperature after the alcoholic fermentation. Ageing in French barriques for twelve months and Slavonian oak casks for sixteen months. Further ageing in the bottle before release.
Colour: Vivid, bright garnet red with orange reflections.
Bouquet: Intense notes of violet and dried rose petals are accompanied by scents of hay and confit, with nuances of sweet tobacco, licorice and leather.
Taste: Full, harmonic, velvety and embracing; intense balsamic notes unfold in a very long and balanced finish.
Particularly well suited to wild game, or other important main courses as well as aged cheeses.
