2021 Cascina Alberta Barbera d'Alba DOC - Organic Certified
 
The grapes are hand-harvested in little hampers in September, then pressed delicately; the alcoholic fermentation starts with the use of indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for six months in big Slavonian oak barrels of 50 Hl. The color is ruby red with purples tinges, and it has a bouquet of cherry, blackberry and small red fruits. The taste in mouth is velvety and fresh. A wine good to be paired to all the dishes.
