The Bricco Battista from Accornero is a characterful Barbera del Monferrato Superiore DOCG that perfectly demonstrates how versatile and elegant the Barbera grape can be. This wine originates from a carefully selected vineyard in the hills of Monferrato, where the combination of calcareous soils and a favorable exposure results in grapes with beautiful concentration and refinement.
Aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and dark forest fruit, complemented by refined notes of coffee, sweet tobacco, cedarwood, and subtle spices. Aging in French oak barrels gives the wine extra depth without overpowering the fruit.
On the palate, the Bricco Battista is powerful and full-bodied, yet remarkably elegant. The lively acidity, so characteristic of Barbera, provides a fresh balance against the ripe fruit and soft tannins. The long, harmonious finish leaves impressions of red fruit, fine spices, and a subtle hint of oak.
