Barbera d'Alba DOC 2022

Its fresh drinkability makes this Piedmontese red one of the best loved by enthusiasts and experts alike. We are talking, of course, about Barbera, the one produced in the Alba area. A DOC wine proposed, in this case, by Castello di Neive. 100% Barbera, this red wine is the result of careful processing of the estate's best grapes, brought to the cellar when fully ripe for processing. Fermented at a controlled temperature, during the delicate maceration phase, the mass undergoes frequent automatic pumping over to delicately extract the colouring substances present in the skins. At the end of the transformation, the wine undergoes what is known as malolactic fermentation and then continues its maturation in steel tanks. A wine characterised by a very bright ruby red colour with violet hues, the nose reveals vinous aromas, with very fresh fruity notes reminiscent of ripe red fruits. In the mouth, however, it is characterised above all by a pleasant freshness, well integrated and compensated by the softness of the fruit. A truly pleasant and well-made wine. Perfect to accompany a snack with friends with cold meats and cheeses, as well as first and second course meat dishes. For lovers of local food pairings, we cannot fail to mention the classic meat agnolotti. Pure pleasure!
