Description: |
The highest expression of Barbera, “Viti Centenarie” is obtained from very old vines that yield small and loose bunches, ideal for the production of opulent and concentrated wines. Intense, thick color, with deep ruby reflections. The nose offers rich and powerful aromas of ripe fruit, black cherry and plum jam, which blend well with floral notes of rose, violet and toasted and balsamic hints given by its aging in wood. It is wholly elegant in the mouth, endowed with an exceptional persistence. A wine that can age very well for at least 10/15 years. Excellent with meat dishes and medium-aged cheeses. |
