## Summary

It took us 35 legal documents and seven years to bring together the numerous parcels of land that make up Montebruna, a property with outstanding oenological value. When we succeeded, we were so ecstatic that we gave it both voice and verse, involving artists, poets and musicians, who have sung about this Barbera and its land, “a land that speaks”.

## Tasting notes

Purplish ruby red colour. Very evident scents of ripe cherry and red berries. The flavour is deep, full and harmonious, with a persistent finish that lingers on the palate, ending with a hint of almond. Excellent, balanced, fragrant and very easy to drink.  [Profiles: fresh, fruity, aromatic, light, crisp, floral]

## Food pairings

It accompanies pasta dishes, red and white meats, cheeses and cured meats.
