WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The La Spinetta Barbera d'Asti Ca' Di Pian is a superb example of Barbera, known for its depth and richness. It presents a well-structured profile with vibrant acidity and a smooth, elegant finish. Produced by La Spinetta, a renowned estate in Piedmont, the winery is celebrated for its high-quality wines and innovative approach. Their commitment to excellence is evident in this Barbera, which combines traditional methods with modern techniques to achieve a wine with exceptional balance and complexity. This Barbera pairs well with a variety of dishes, including pasta, roasted meats, and aged cheeses.
The 2023 Barbera D'Asti Superiore Ca' Di Pian pours an opaque red/magenta hue and is sourced from a blend of 18 vineyards across three zones. Aromatically, it’s ripe and seductive, with preserved blackberries, candied violets, blue fruit, sweet herbs, and mocha. Medium to full-bodied, it offers vibrant acidity with supple, silky tannins and a generous finish. This overdelivers for the price.
