Barbera d’Asti DOCG Superiore “Marchese Dalmasso”

Barbera d’Asti DOCG Superiore “Marchese Dalmasso” is a tribute to Monferrato, a land of gentle hills and ancient winemaking traditions. A modern and refined expression of Barbera, it combines the authentic character of its Piedmontese roots with a vinification and ageing process that enhances its complexity and elegance.

 

Tasting Notes

 

  • Color: Intense ruby red, animated by violet reflections that highlight its youth and vibrancy.
  • Aroma: Rich and layered, with aromas of sour cherry and blackberry, balsamic and spicy nuances, accents of licorice, vanilla, and a delicate toasted note.
  • Palate: Full and enveloping, with velvety tannins and a robust yet well-balanced structure. The Barbera’s characteristic acidity lends freshness and harmony, leading into a long, persistent finish.

 

Food Pairings

 

Perfect with agnolotti del plin in roast gravy, braised meats, mixed boiled meats, and aged cheeses. Versatile and convivial, it adds elegance to any table.
