Cascina Penna-Currado Barbera d’Alba Carrà 2023 14.5% 750ml
TASTING NOTES
APPEARANCE
It is plain to see from the deep ruby red colour that this is a wine with an exceptional structure.
AROMA
On the nose, rich aromas of black fruit such as plums and blueberries are fused with spicy notes and balsamic touches.
PALATE
On the palate, the crisp minerality perfectly counterbalances the full body. With its fine, velvety tannins, this wine is ideal for sipping slowly.
REGION NOTES
San Sebastiano, Monforte d’Alba. Grapes from two vineyards that face south-west, with vines that are 25 and 70 years old. Thanks to the advanced age of the vines, the low yields and late ripening due to the altitude and direct exposure to the Alps, the grapes ripen perfectly. Neither drying nor over-ripening, they are marvellously concentrated and preserve all of the classic Barbera fragrance.
MATURATION
The wine is aged in large barrels for approximately one year.
GRAPE VARIETY
100% Barbera
