Barbera d’Asti Superiore D.O.C.G. 14,5%

From £36.00

Barbera Superiore DOCG is a full-bodied wine with a strong and assertive character, it is the finest expression of the Barbera variety.

Matured for 18 months in oak casks/barrels (French oak or large oak casks), followed by additional bottle aging (minimum 6 to 8 months).

While standard Barbera wines are typically enjoyed young, top-tier single-vineyard (cru) expressions like Boschetto Vecchio are structured explicitly for long-term cellaring.

Refined and superior, Nizza Barcarato is a wine that represents the mastery of Piedmontese winemaking.
