Barbera del Monferrato

Cork

The Accornero family are fourth-generation winemakers and own 20ha in Vignale Monferrato. Bricco Battista is a selection of three southeast-facing parcels planted in 1970 with average yields at a low 35hl/ha. Intriguingly nuanced, this is earthy rather than fruity, with evocative forest floor, liquorice root and spice overlaying woodland berries. Compact on the palate, with smooth tannins and tangy, mouthwatering acidity, this lingers with an appetising mineral savouriness. It’s aged in a combination of new and used tonneaux.
