Red
Bugia Nan
By Rolfo - Ca’ di Cairè, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
The estate's young, fresh Barbera d'Alba, 14% vol. Not meant for ageing, with 24 to 36 months as the ideal window.
Tasting notes
Ruby red, more or less intense. Vinous, intense, fruity and dry nose. Full and dry on the palate, pleasant, with good persistence. The brochure calls it a young wine with ripe-fruit aromas and well-balanced acidity.
Pairs well with
Cold cuts, risotto, white and red meats not too heavily seasoned, Piedmontese fritto misto, cheeses.
