13.5% ABV -- UNOAKED --After soft crushing and a short period of cold maceration, the free run must ferments at a temperature of 16-18 °C to enhance the varietal aromas. This is followed by several months' ageing on lees in stainless steel vats to improve the product's complexity and longevity.

A structured barbera with ripe red fruit and nutty oak character to the nose. Medium- to full-bodied with the same balance of fruit and oak to start, but the oak expands as the palate progresses, adding a tannin feel and more and more savory notes. Feels a little raw just now, but should meld together nicely with a year or two in bottle. Try from 2025.
Rated 92/100 James Suckling
Vibrant blue- and purple-fruit aromas intertwine with delicate notes of iris and violet, complemented by sweet oak spice. Rich and lush on the palate, this wine maintains a remarkable balance, offering a generous and mouth-filling experience without overwhelming the senses. A solid structure supports the mouthwatering flavors, leading to a lengthy finish that leaves a lasting impression. — Jeff Porter
