Cantine Povero Dianae

A Barbera d'Asti made without added sulphites, 2024 vintage, 14% alcohol. Part of the proceeds from each bottle goes to the Fondazione Piemontese per la Ricerca sul Cancro.

Tasting notes

Intense ruby with purplish shades. Particularly vinous, persistent nose; the absence of wood lets typical Barbera notes show: ripe morello cherry, plum, liquorice and spice. Dry, warm and full.

Pairs well with

Grilled meats, vegetable risotto, tajarin with meat ragù, white meats, fish soup, mixed boiled meats, Piedmontese mixed fry; roasts, lasagne, aged cheeses.
