Description

60% Barbera, 40% Bonarda grapes from organic vineyards. The younger version of the traditional blend of Colli Piacentini, obtained from the local varieties Barbera and Bonarda, born from the selection of the bigger berries, as well as from the younger as well as the lower parts of the vineyards. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, in stainless steel and cement tanks. "Wild, earthy, yeastiness on the nose, incongruously like fresh vanilla pod with its earthy sweet-leathery notes. Aromas of small berries, blackberries, myrtille. Dryish on palate, which is meaty, earthy, spicy, sweet earth, lardo, reminds me of Bellota ham and refreshing acidity. Youthful and purple and vibrant. Cries out for a big plate of charcuterie and cheese and some top class air-dried hams." Le Caveau.
