The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01The Barbera d’Alba Superiore from Azienda Agricola Il Gottino, managed by Felice Dabbene, originates from a vineyard with a southwest exposure and a 30% slope at 330 meters altitude, where the Barbera grape is cultivated using the Guyot system.
-
Palate & Finish
02Traditional red winemaking, with controlled temperature fermentation, is followed by six months of aging in steel tanks and twelve months in oak barriques.

At the Table
03On the nose, notes anticipate its evolution, while on the palate, a decisive character is revealed, ready to accompany dishes such as beef braised, risotto with porcini mushrooms, or a selection of aged cheeses.
