Barbera d’Alba DOC Ape Reale
2017
2016
Tasting Notes
Brilliant ruby red in color, and an intense fragranced marked by cherry and plum scents. Dry and full, with a marked acidity and a light-tannin richness. An excellent wine for the whole meal.
Vineyards
Located in southwestern Italy, the area of Verduno has always been considered one of the best in the Piedmont region, nestled between the picturesque towns of La Morra and Alba. Grown on the Langa hills with a clay/calcareous soil.
Winemaking
Initial use of stainless steel vinification vats is followed by the wine aging for 6 months in oak casks.
