Description
Barbera d'Asti Ceppi Storici, Araldica, Piedmont, Italy, 2021
Grape: 100% Barbera, hand harvested, 12 months ageing in French oak barrels (50%) and large traditional Piedmont oak vats (50%). Vineyards in the Monferrato hills.
Sourced from over 40 year old vines, this Barbera d'Asti shows layer upon layer of concentrated fruit and has been part of Araldica's portfolio for more than half a century
The palate is rich and generous with juicy cherry and more plum fruit, and meaty, spicy notes beneath. Soft oak tannins offer an extra dimension to the texture. A refreshing smack of fruity acidity on the finish gives plenty of definition to the ripe fruit.
Drink with pizza, pasta and lamb shank.
