More informations about the variety Barbera blanche
Crisp, taut whites with a marked acidity, showing discreet aromas of green apple, citrus, white flowers and fresh herbal notes. Neutral and refreshing profile.

Very rare autochthonous Piedmontese variety, with no genetic link to black barbera despite the shared name.
