Barbera d’Alba

Barbera, a typical Piedmontese grape variety, reaches good levels of maturity, concentration and freshness in the Sant’Anna sub-zone in the municipality of Monforte d’Alba, thanks to the meticulous work carries out in the vineyard. Vinous notes, lightness, agility, and hints of violet due to minimal ageing in steel for 8 months.
