Barbera d'Alba Buschet DOC 2021 75cl
The Barbera d'Alba is fresh and juicy, making it an accessible and effortless choice for uncomplicated enjoyment. This wine has a rich ruby red color and exudes aromas of plums and blackberries with a hint of black pepper. On the palate, a lively dance of fruit and refreshing acidity unfolds, culminating in a long, satisfying finish. The Barbera d'Alba comes from a vineyard in the Barbaresco subzone called "Buschet," meaning "small forest," referring to an iconic area of Barbaresco for the winemakers of Barbera and Dolcetto. The grapes were harvested from 50-year-old vines. In the winery, the grapes were destemmed and fermented, including 10-15 days on the skins. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged for 6 months in cement-steel tanks before bottling. Pairs well with: Very versatile. Meat, poultry, pizza, pasta, and sausages.
