Barbera d'Asti superiore Carlo Alfieri 2017, 75 cl

Character, depth, and elegance define "Carlo." This wine is produced exclusively in exceptional vintages using Barbera grapes that best express the grape's identity and is the result of a patient aging process. With Carlo Alfieri, a dream comes true for Marchesi Alfieri: the winery releases the 2015 vintage (an outstanding year for the Barbera grape) in a limited edition of only 1,750 bottles. A complex, broad, and enveloping bouquet reveals a perfect balance between notes of ripe dark cherries and blackberries, with hints of coffee, cocoa, and a subtle balsamic note. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-structured, with silky tannins and lingering flavors. Carlo Alfieri fully embodies the unique characteristics of our terroir. This wine is only produced when it has reached its utmost complexity and elegance.
