ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
This Barbaresco DOCG is made from Nebbiolo (100%) in the sub-varieties Michet and Lampia. This producer works only in minimal intervention with very low sulfites and without using any additive. Garnet red; intense, elegant, fruity, with tobacco and spicy notes. On the Palate it is armonious, balanced with an important body and a very pleasant, slightly spicy aftertaste.
