Made from \u003cstrong\u003e100% Barbera\u003c\/strong\u003e grapes from the oldest part of the Scarrone vineyard in Castiglione Falletto, it expresses the character of the denomination with a precise and refined style, designed for those seeking a red wine that is both substantial and balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTerritory and wine style\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe origin from Scarrone, in a renowned area of Piedmont, helps define the identity of this \u003cstrong\u003eBarbera d’Alba DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e. The older vines, carefully selected, naturally lead to lower yields and a raw material of great concentration. The work in the cellar, with fermentation in steel, skin maceration, and subsequent aging in wood and steel, guides the wine towards an elegant, intense, and well-balanced style, without sacrificing the typical vivacity of Barbera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a bright and deep \u003cstrong\u003eruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e.

The profile is warm and enveloping, with tannins present but well integrated, and a harmonious, persistent, and very gastronomic finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine pairs naturally with \u003cstrong\u003estews\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003egame\u003c\/strong\u003e, roasted meats, poultry with rich sauces, and \u003cstrong\u003eaged or strongly flavored cheeses\u003c\/strong\u003e.
