Piedmont
The Crena vineyard is located near the village of Agliano Terme, with a south-facing exposure, with a total surface of about six hectares. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks for about two weeks, then macerated for another week on their skins and racked to oak barrels. The wine was aged for about 18 months in barriques, large oak vats, and steel tanks.
Aromas of ripe raspberry and red cherry fruit, combined with spicy and mineral notes and a touch of vanilla and toast. Full bodied on the palate, quite rich, with lush fruit that is well balanced with the acidity, good integration of oak and a long lingering aftertaste. One of the most outstanding Barbera you can buy!
Pair it with it with pasta and poultry dishes, rich sauces, and robust cheeses.
