Piedmont DOC (1970) on the historic hills of Monferrato (Asti, Alessandria). Barbera as the king variety (the most planted in Piedmont, more accessible than Nebbiolo): deep and juicy reds with signature notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, anise, violet, dried herbs and a liquorice touch, bright fresh acidity and a moreish palate — Piedmontese conviviality in a bottle. Ink-coloured robe. Sparkling frizzante version.

Italian everyday wine.
