Bartolo Mascarello Barbera d'Alba

Grown on a single vineyard alongside the estate's Nebbiolo, this Barbera is made in the same uncompromising, traditional style as the Barolo.

Tasting notes

Crushed cherries, raspberries, liquorice, tar and anise, with a juicy, fresh palate, vibrant acidity and excellent balance and structure.
