Red
Manora
By Colle Manora, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
Barbera d'Asti Superiore from the estate's own "Manora" vineyard, facing south to south-west, aged 12 months in oak casks.
Tasting notes
Intense, brilliant ruby red. Notes of violet, small fruits and spices. Round, full of character and class; contact with wood tempers the Barbera's edge, making it warmer and more harmonious.
Pairs well with
Meats, roasts and savoury stews; rich first courses.
