Bric Cenciurio Naunda

A single-vineyard Barbera d'Alba Superiore from vines over 70 years old on sandy, clay-based soil from an ancient seabed, low-yielding and built for aging.

Tasting notes

A wine of great structure, born of a small, highly concentrated harvest from very old vines, requiring adequate aging to express the full power and balance of a great Barbera.
