La Spinetta Ca' di Pian Barbera d'Asti 2022

La Spinetta Ca' di Pian Barbera d'Asti 2022 is a classic Barbera from Piedmont, produced by La Spinetta, known for its uncompromising quality and elegant style. The wine comes from fields in the Monferrato area, where the Barbera grape thrives in the chalky and clayey soil, where it gains both intense fruit and freshness. Ca' di Pian is the house's signature Barbera, a wine that combines generous fruit with a straight acidity, making it both lively and food-friendly.

Aromatic and inviting nose with ripe notes of cherries, blackberries and plums, accompanied by a touch of violets, licorice, pepper and a hint of roasted almonds.
