Red
Barbanera
By I Moncalvi, Gavi, Piemonte, Italy
A red from softly pressed Barbera, joined by a few bunches of rare native grapes. Suited to long ageing.
Tasting notes
Colour: rather deep ruby red that softens with age. Aroma: pleasantly winey, sometimes with a hint of dog rose. Palate: dry, good body, not aggressive acidity and rather soft.
Pairs well with
Tasty first courses such as tagliatelle with ragù, game, braised meats and hard cheeses aged 2 to 3 years.
