## Summary

An estate Barbera from the La Serra vineyard in Cassine (Alessandria), reviving the historic Barbera vocation of the Alto Monferrato hills.

## Tasting notes

Colour: intense ruby red with violet reflections. Bouquet: strong and rich aromas of blackberries, raspberries and ripe cherries. Taste: fine and elegant, with great drinkability, its balance owed to the union of bright acidity and full body. A crisp wine.

## Food pairings

Ideal with local salumi and tajarin with meat ragu, also pairs well with fresh cheeses.
