Tasting Notes: This `SuperBarbera` is produced from low yielding old vines. Unusually for Piedmont Barbera it is aged 12 months in French oak barriques. A rich, warm style with complex aromatics. The nose has the dark fruit, liquorice that you would expect, followed by soft vanilla and cedar notes. On the palate the wine is full bodied, warm and packed with dark cherry & blackcurrant, leading to hints of the vanilla and smoky spice. A wine to be savoured with huge potential for ageing.
Vite Colte is made up of people who strongly believe in a shared concept of quality, where the responsibility of individuals is an integral part of the broader final result. Winegrowers, partners, friends. the members of ViteColte and their families are the cornerstones of a modern winery that demands expertise, dedication, and commitment to the very high standards of Piedmont traditions. Every winegrower is remunerated on the basis of the size of the vineyard and not the quantity of product, in order to obtain the highest level of quality.
The unique low alpine region of Piedmont (or Piemonte), which means `at the foot of the mountains`, is located in northwest Italy around the city of Turin. The region includes the small and prestige hillside wine towns of Barolo, Barbaresco, Asti and Gavi, where a diverse variety of wine styles originate. Some of Italy`s most revered and expensive red wines come from the Nebbiolo grape, grown alongside Barbera, Dolcetto, Moscato and Cortese.
Food Match : This wine is particularly well-suited to pairing with structured pasta dishes and meats, such as veal fillet, mini gnocchi with Castelmagno cheese, cannelloni with leeks and Gorgonzola, and tagliatelle with meat sauce.
