PelassaBarbera d'Alba Superiore DOC
100% Barbera
In the heart of the Barolo Region, precisely in Monta D’Alba, Piedmont, lies the Pelassa Winery. With over 50 years of experience and a deep commitment to preserving the region’s winemaking tradition, the family crafts this delicate Barbera d’Alba. Manually harvested in the middle of October, the grapes enjoy a relatively long hang time on the vine, offering rich and dense flavors. After the harvest, the wine undergoes a patient ageing process of 12 months in oak barrels and 12 months in the bottle.
A captivating ruby red wine boasting ripe berry fruit and vanilla aromas on the nose. With a full-bodied, soft, and well-balanced taste, this exceptionally classy wine leaves a lasting impression with its impressive persistence and delightful sapidity.
Pelassa Winery’s Barbera d’Alba complements Piedmontese fresh egg pasta, roasted red and white meats, and savory grilled sausages. Explore vegetarian delights like ratatouille or mushroom risotto. Savor the wine’s richness with polenta and wild mushroom ragout. For a delightful finish, pair it with aged and robust cheeses. A versatile and exceptional culinary companion.
