La Raia

Piemonte Doc Barbera Bruente

The typical Piedmontese red, with a precise balance between acidity and freshness. Ruby garnet red with purple hints, intense floral notes recalling rose and small brushwood fruits. Full, harmonious and warm, with a pleasant savoury finish. Grapes are handpicked between late September and early October, fermented on skins with daily pumpovers, then refined in stainless steel for around six months with no oak contact at all, followed by a short rest in bottle. That steel only regime keeps the wine fresh and immediate, built for everyday drinking rather than the cellar.
