Descrizione

Barbaresco DOCG is a majestic and elegant wine produced by the Ricossa family, which follows an aging period of three years, one of which in French oak and two in stainless steel tanks.

A glass that has a garnet red color with traditional orange reflections. An intense aroma of coffee, licorice and spices, among which the aroma of vanilla stands out, create a captivating bouquet on the nose.

On the palate it is bursting, the tannins are balanced and the flavor that lingers in the mouth is unique, soft and persistent for a long time. An important red that can certainly best represent the Piedmontese territory.

Exceptional in combination with first courses seasoned with meat sauce or mushrooms, fondues, red meats, game and medium-aged cheeses. If you are a lover of good wine, this will certainly be for you.

Winery history

The brand's roots lie in the Asti area: the family has origins linked to a distillery dating back to the late 19th century, and the Ricossa name has been known since the early 20th century. The modern production identity has been consolidated around Tenuta Ca' dei Mandorli, with a new winery and the development of a collection of classic Piedmontese wines over recent decades, and a relaunch of the brand beginning in the last decade with integration into the Argea/Mondodelvino group.

Production philosophy

Interpreting classic Piedmontese grape varieties through a contemporary lens, showcasing the terroir with Barbera as the primary reference, and offering approachable wines for everyday consumption without losing the connection to the region’s historic appellations.
