Montalbera Lequilibrio

Lequilibrio is Montalbera's Barbera d'Asti DOCG Superiore, aged around a year in French oak of different sizes for added structure.

Tasting notes

Intense ruby red. Flavours of red berries, raspberry and blackcurrant interchange on the nose with hints of dark chocolate and underwood. Persistent and soft on the palate, with an embracing and balanced tannic weave and the good acidity typical of Barbera.
