Barbera d'Asti Conan 2007

Deep crimson in aspect, with aromas of dark cherry, turned earth and gamey notes of salami skin. Powerful yet structured on the palate with black cherry, dark chocolate, earthy spice and vanilla, with good acidity and a long finish. Pair with duck, pork or spaghetti bolognese. Perfect with wild boar sausages with pumpkin and parmesan mash.

The Araldica group of companies is a major force in wine growing, production and distribution based in the Piemonte region of northwest Italy. Thanks to the combination of a modern attitude towards production and marketing with a commitment to producing wines that are identifiably Piemontese, the group enjoys ever-growing international success. Araldica's Managing Director, eonologist Claudio Manera, is adamant that investment in the vineyards, as much as in other areas of the business, is vital to maintain the quality of the product.
