## Summary

A Nizza DOCG made from 100% Barbera, fermented with a ten-day maceration and aged in French oak.

## Tasting notes

Intense ruby with purple reflections. The nose offers wild berries in jam, plums, dark chocolate, dried red rose and a slight hint of coffee. On the palate great acidity and alcoholic weight are in balance, pointing to a long life ahead.
