Gianni Doglia Bosco Donne

An easy-drinking Barbera d'Asti made to match traditional Piemontese cuisine.

Tasting notes

Purple-red colour with ripe red fruit aromas. Enveloping, persistent and intense on the palate, with the lively acidity typical of Barbera.

Pairs well with

Pairs easily with most Piemontese dishes, in particular knife-cut raw meat, agnolotti del plin with roast sauce, and beef braised in Barbera.

Vinification
Hand-harvested grapes are crushed and fermented at controlled temperature with about 8 days of maceration; after fermentation the wine is left to clarify by static decanting until end of winter, then rests in steel tanks until bottling in late summer, followed by about 6 months of bottle ageing.
