Barbera d'Asti
Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita
Sarasino
A distinctly feminine Barbera d’Asti, which stands out for its bright fruit and marked acidity. A prêt-à-porter wine, always elegant, always pleasant, blunt, delightful, with a wonderful savoury note that calls for another glass. And another one.
