Description
In a nutshell:
A perfectly fresh and juicy example Barbera, of one of the signature grape varieties of Piedmont.
The lowdown:
The Il Cascinone estate underwent extensive replanting in the early 2000s and this bright and really tasty is a product of these young vines. And in place of the cooked jamminess sometimes found wines from round here this has is a gloriously intense, tangy, fresh and ripe fruit character balanced with savoury herby notes. It's barrique aged which contributes to the pleasingly full body making it a very satisfying wine.
When to drink:
A wine that certainly over-delivers for its price bracket. Try it alongside rich beef stews, cassoulet or even belly pork.
Suitable for Vegans
