Michele Chiarlo Cipressi Nizza DOCG

Winemaker Stefano Chiarlo is rightly proud of the Michele Chiarlo Cipressi Barbera Nizza. "A wine with intense notes of raspberries and small red fruits, combined with a sweet and delicate spiciness. The taste experience is a rare balance (thanks to the vintage) between opulence, freshness and spiciness on the finish." International wine critics also agree that Barbera d'Asti is something special: 94 points in Wine Enthusiast and 90 points from James Suckling speak for themselves.

The varietal Barbera combines notes of ripe cherries, raspberries and sweet tobacco in its bouquet. "Vinous aromas of freshly pressed grapes, fragrant blue flowers and ripe blueberries together with a hint of graphite and undergrowth" form the inviting bouquet, according to the Wine Enthusiast. Suckling attributes "plenty of elderberries, vanilla, plum stone and dark chocolate" to the Italian red wine.

On the palate, the red wine from Piedmont is stimulatingly complex, with a full body, noticeable wood and an impressively fresh softness and roundness. The beautiful, fruity depth of aroma (cherries, blackberries) is also evident here. A great harmony develops in combination with the velvety tannins. The finish is pleasantly spicy.

The ruby red wine from Piedmont matured for 12 months in large oak barrels. Enjoy the Michele Chiarlo Cipressi Barbera Nizza at a drinking temperature of 15 to 17 degrees. This Barbera is a perfect accompaniment to food. Try it with the typical northern Italian pasta variety taglierini with a veal ragout, involtini alla siciliana (roulades), red meat, stuffed pasta and a spicy hard cheese, for example.

Pio Cesare Barbera d'Alba DOC
The Pio Cesare Barbera d'Alba DOC is a very classic, pure Barbera from Piedmont, some of whose grapes come from plots where the grapes for the famous Barolo also grow. This gives the Barbera grape, from which 100% of this dry red wine is made, a special strength and depth in addition to the tangy fruit and lively, fresh acidity. The fermentation of the Pio Cesare Barbera d'Alba DOC takes around 10 to 12 days at a temperature of around 25 degrees in order to preserve the fruit in the dry red wine. It then matures for two years in French oak, partly in barriques and partly in larger barrels.Pleasant fruit on the nose, deliciously ripe black cherries, with a hint of vanilla, broad and seductive.Very pure and powerful on the palate, sweet cherries and vanilla, some chocolate, smoky, broad and juicy, with beautiful length and complexity.A delicious Barbera with duck breast, confit de canard, great with game and hare, also enjoyable in food-pairing with hard cheese.

Serre dei Roveri Appassimento Piemonte Barbera DOC
This impressive wine from Piedmont offers intense aromas of cherries, ripe dark fruit and dried fruit on the nose. On the palate, this complex wine is powerful, with great density and noticeable but soft and beautifully integrated tannins. In the traditional Appassimento method, the grapes ripen beyond the full ripening date and dry on the vine. They shrink almost to a raisin and thus gain aromas, sugar and acidity. This results in exceptional wines with fine aromas reminiscent of raisins and a finish that lingers for a long time. Discover the Serre dei Roveri Appassimento Piemonte Barbera DOC with hearty game dishes, roasts or long matured cheese variations, for example. A wonderful red wine from Piedmont from Sartirano Figli.
