The Barbera d'Alba DOC Superiore "Priòra" by Fratelli Alessandria is a wine that captures the essence of the Barbera grape through the unique interpretation of a historic Piedmont winery, known for its commitment to quality and the authentic expression of territory. This wine comes from a careful selection of the best Barbera grapes, grown with passion and dedication in the vineyards located in the most suitable areas of the Alba region.

The "Priòra" has a deep ruby ​​red color, enriched by violet reflections that anticipate its intensity and complexity. On the nose, the wine exhibits a rich bouquet of aromas, dominated by notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, together with hints of spices and an elegant background of vanilla and chocolate, the result of the aging in wood which perfectly integrates the characteristics varietals without overpowering them.

In the mouth, Barbera d'Alba Superiore "Priòra" reveals an extraordinary richness and depth, with a velvety tannic texture that combines harmoniously with a lively acidity, a distinctive characteristic of the Barbera grape. This balance gives the wine a pleasant drinkability, with a long and persistent finish that lets the fruity and spicy notes emerge again.

Perfect in combination with robust and tasty dishes, such as grilled red meats, dishes based on mushrooms and truffles, and mature cheeses, "Priòra" is also an ideal wine for moments of contemplation, capable of expressing complexity and elegance that only the best Barbera d'Alba Superiore can offer.
