Sourced from over 40 year old vines, this Barbera d'Asti shows layer upon layer of concentrated fruit and has been part of Araldica's portfolio for more than half a century - the first vintage being in 1954. Warm, spicy aromas of blueberries and plums, with subtle, smoky notes. The palate combines generous ripe fruit with lively acidity, juicy cherry characters and spicy notes beneath. Supple tannins offer an extra dimension to the texture. A refreshing smack of fruity acidity on the finish gives plenty of definition to the ripe fruit. Araldica
