The bigot was the pious woman who lived next to our Barbera vineyard. She cared about the external practices and the rules of religion, but not about the spirit of them. We instilled that spirit.
20 days of maceration on the skins
15 months in oak barrels and 12 months in bottle
Ruby red color with violet reflections. Rich, intense and persistent aroma, very well developed, with hints of licorice, purple, plum and vanilla. On the palate emerge fruits and spices from the roasted to the particularly balanced, vigorous and intense spiciness. The richness of the expression is due to the spices that envelop the pulp of the ripe plum (the most evident fruit), giving softness and power.
