Colli Tortonesi Barbera DOC Bigolla 2004 - Vigneti Massa

Bigolla is the oldest cru of Vigneti Massa, a Barbera from Colli Tortonesi with very low vineyard yields. It is traditionally vinified and aged for about 22 months in barriques, giving greater structure and complexity to the variety. Ruby in colour with garnet reflections, it shows floral, fruity and spicy aromas. The palate has good freshness despite long ageing, substantial body and softness that smooths the typical edges of young Barbera. It suits rich, savoury dishes such as red meats and aged cheeses, and can be enjoyed at the end of a meal.
