Le Serre
Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG
Le Serre is a refined expression of Barbera, with a small addition of air-dried Dolcetto that enhances depth without diluting the fruit. The nose shows ripe black cherry, plum, and hints of dried fig, layered with subtle spice and toasted oak.
On the palate, it is vibrant yet structured, with bright acidity and flavors of dark berries, cocoa, and a touch of balsamic. Soft tannins carry through to a long, elegant finish.
The 2021 growing season unfolded slowly and steadily, with a cool, wet spring followed by a warm, balanced summer and ideal late-season conditions. Harvest occurred in mid to late September under dry skies, allowing for precise picking at optimal ripeness. The extended hang time and absence of extreme heat resulted in beautifully balanced fruit, with excellent acidity, refined structure, and a classic expression of Barbera shaped by a long, even ripening cycle.
Perfect with roasted meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses - especially beef, lamb, or mushroom-based dishes.
This wine has become a staple in many local restaurants and a crowd favorite.
