Barbera d'Alba Vigna Scarrone

Designation: Barbera d’Alba D.O.C.

Grape Variety: Barbera 100%

The grapes are selected from the single vineyard Scarrone in Castiglione Falletto with a south-west exposure.

Winemaking: pre-fermentation cold maceration. Alcoholic fermentation for approximately 2 weeks, in open stainless steel tanks, with mechanical punching downs and pumpingovers. The alcoholic fermentation is followed by a post-fermentation maceration with the skins. The wine is then racked and moved to barriques for malolactic fermentation. Aging: 18 months between stainless-steel, barriques and wooden barrels.

Description: ruby red color with intense aromas of ripe red and black cherries, vanilla and spices. Good acidity and full body. Excellent balance, great complexity and persistence finish.
