Tasting notes
In appearance the wine presents lively ruby red with full and inviting tonality. As for bouquet it reserves a pleasant surprise releasing aromas which lead back to fresh or full ripe fruit, with fragrance of plum, blackberry, spices and toasting. To the taste the wine is full and involving, with an acidulous vein always evident, which makes it suitable for modern drinking.
Background
The Barbera d'Alba is produced in the territory of Alba and the surrounding 56 villages that form the low Langa and partly the Roero.
Estate
Giuseppe Manfredi is no newcomer to Barolo. In 1930, he purchased vineyards and a farmhouse in the exquisite Langhe Valley, in Piedmont, Italy. Because of Giuseppe’s foresight, his grandson Aldo Manfredi can carry on the family tradition. Aldo, his wife Gianfranca and their daughters, Luisa and Paola operate the winery. They have brought the estate right up to date with the most modern technology and production techniques. The Manfredi family and their close-knit team pay deep attention to quality. As a result, they perpetuate the inspiring story of a 90+ year-old family tradition. Their winery sits in the beautiful rolling hills of the Langhe valley. The Manfredi family produces and sources high-quality Barbera d’Alba, Barolo and Gavi di Gavi. The family also has 20 hectares of prime Dolectto vineyards at its Bricco Rosso estate in Dogliani.
