After a 15-day maceration on the skins, this Barbaresco DOCG, by Prunotto, rests for at least a year in oak barrels and in the bottle for ten months. It gives a rich and powerful drink, but at the same time also refined and elegant. It has character to spare and achieves high quality standards.
Tasting Notes.: Intense garnet red in the glass. Demonstrates an olfactory framework in which memories of raspberries, red cherries and plums combine with hints of cinnamon, licorice, chocolate and underbrush. Full-bodied and driven by an elegant tannic texture, the palate reveals itself to be structured and elegant at the same time. Long in persistence.
Pairings: Perfect paired with red meats, game or venison, it is excellent with beef stew with potatoes.
