Giacomo Conterno's Barbera d'Alba DOC "Vigna Francia" 2024 is one of the most prestigious, structured and long-lasting interpretations of this grape variety. Produced in the historic and emblematic Cru France in Serralunga d'Alba (acquired by the winery in 1974), it represents a benchmark for Piedmontian oenology thanks to its incredible depth and ability to evolve over time
The clusters, collected manually during the harvest, are brought to the premises of the Giacomo Conterno winery, where they are crushed. The resulting grapes are sent to the press and the must is fermented in steel tanks.
20 months in large cask
It presents itself in the glass with an intense, luminous ruby red color. On the nose, it opens with an aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits, including cherries and raspberries, accompanied by delicate hints of sweet spices and floral notes of violet. The olfactory complexity is enriched by hints of undergrowth and a slight note of wood. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and dynamic, with a lively freshness and well-integrated tannins that support a medium body and a long persistence. The finish is characterized by a pleasant note of red fruit and a slight spiciness.
