La Guardia

By Amerio Vincenzo, Nizza, Piemonte, Italy

Amerio Vincenzo La Guardia

Barbera d'Asti Superiore aged 12 months in barrique and 12 in bottle; drinks well for 8 to 10 years.

Tasting notes

Deep ruby with violet reflections. Clean, elegant nose of ripe red fruit and sweet vanilla. Full and austere on entry, with light acidity that keeps it fresh and carries a long finish echoing the aromas.

Pairs well with

Agnolotti quadri with roast gravy.
