A new style of Piemontese wine, utilizing the Appassimento method of drying grapes (a technique prominent in the Veneto region). Barbera with its naturally high acidity works well in this context. Allowing for a wine with elevated body and richness, but remaining fresh and lively.
Denomination: Piemonte D.O.C. Barbera Passito Appassimento.
Grape variety: 100% Barbera.
Vinification: Manual harvest of the grapes then dried to concentrate aromas and colour. Final refining.
Winemaker’s note: Rich wine with hints of ripe fruits, and cherry jelly. Velvety tannins and persistent taste.
Food pairing: Grilled meat, lamb, cheese.
Cellar life: 7 years.
