Marchesi di Barolo Barbera d'Alba DOC Peiragal 2023 Magnum (1.5L)

A 2023 Barbera d'Alba DOC from Marchesi di Barolo, in a 150cl magnum. Peiregal is the Piedmontese word for the hills built on a calcareous-clay base, and the wine takes its name from that kind of soil. The grapes ferment at controlled temperature, then the wine ages for one year in French oak barriques. The result is a well-defined Barbera with harmony between aroma and palate. The nose recalls violet, red berries, cherry, nutmeg and tobacco. On the palate it is clean, balanced and harmonious, with dense, well-worked tannin, and it finishes persistently.
