Barbaresco

By Morra Gabriele, Barbaresco, Piemonte, Italy

Morra Gabriele Barbaresco

The estate's flagship, a Barbaresco from old Nebbiolo vines, fermented in steel and aged about a year and a half in large oak.

Tasting notes

Freshly squeezed blueberry and raspberry juice, withered red flowers, damp earth, balsamic and mineral hints. Enveloping and complex on the palate, with soft, velvety tannins and long persistence.

Pairs well with

Venison stew
