Descrizione

A charming Barbaresco, with a splendid bright garnet hue.

The scent is enveloping, ethereal and rich in spices. As for the aroma, it begins with delicate notes of dried rose, dried cherry and red fruit jam, and then explodes with intense hints of cinnamon, cloves, black pepper and tobacco. Towards the end, a light hint of vanilla and cedar emerges.

The flavor is dry, robust and harmonious, in short, complex but delicate. The tannins are well blended and soft on the palate.

This wine pairs beautifully with dishes such as tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms, game meat, mature cheeses such as Grana Padano, spicy cheeses, a stew or a Barbaresco fillet.

Winery history

The Povero family has been rooted in the Piedmont region since the first half of the 19th century: land purchased in 1837, grandfather Bartolomeo planted vineyards in 1948, and in 1964 the sons began bottling under the family name. In the years that followed the estate expanded, and from the late 1990s it undertook conversion to organic viticulture, completed with certification covering the main vineyards.

Production philosophy

Sustainability and respect for the land guide the company's practices: organic vineyard management, conservation of woodlands to support biodiversity, and cellar practices aimed at reducing environmental impact while preserving the expressive character of the grape varieties.

Terroir and vineyards

Based in Cisterna d'Asti, at the crossroads of the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, with varied soils that characterize both white and red wines typical of Piedmont.
