Monferrato is a violet and berry-scented Barbera which packs a powerful juicy punch on the palate backed by supple tannins and a refreshing burst of controlled acidity. This a great all-rounder red that deserves to be enjoyed more frequently. Founded by the Moccagatta family in the 1970s in the hamlet of Monterotondo. Villa Sparina comprises 100 hectares of land, 70 of which are cultivated with local grapes for the production of Gavi and Barbera wine. The unique and eye-catching bottle shape corresponds to the Roman amphorae found in the truffle-rich grounds.
