Vite Colte Terredavino San Nicolao Barbera d'Asti DOCG
San Nicolao Barbera d'Asti delivers exactly what you're looking for in a modern Barbera: deep color, ripe plum and cherry, and a juicy, inviting structure that immediately draws you in for a second sip.
Vineyards and region
The Barbera comes from the Piedmont region in the heart of Asti, from vineyards between Agliano and Rocchetta Tanaro. The rolling hills yield fruit with abundant aroma and fresh tension, ideal for a Barbera that remains both opulent and precise.
Vinification and maturation
After gentle crushing, the must macerates on the skins for one to two weeks to develop color, aroma, and fine tannins. The cuvée then undergoes a long fermentation and matures further in the bottle before release. This approach deepens the color, rounds out the structure, and increases the aromatic layers, while preserving Barbera's characteristic freshness.
Grape composition
Barbera, 100% from the Agliano-Rocchetta Tanaro area. Barbera is known for its vibrant acidity, abundant color, and ripe red fruit—the building blocks of an energetic yet silky-smooth style.
Tasting notes and serving suggestions
Deep ruby red. Rich and inviting on the nose with plums, cherries, and a delicate spice. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, remarkably soft for Barbera, with juicy fruit, crisp acidity, and a long, flavorful finish. Serve with red meat, rich pasta dishes, and hard cheeses. Would this Barbera pair well with tomato and mozzarella pizza? Yes, thanks to its crisp acidity, ripe red fruit, and mild tannins, it perfectly complements the sweet-sour-savory flavors of classic pizzas like Margherita, mushroom, or salami. This wine is irresistible now and can also be enjoyed for several years.
