Cavalcaonte
An intense and seductive Barbera, smooth and elegant, with a robust structure and a long finish.
Description
Cavalcaonte is a Barbera with a seductive and irresistible character, a ‘charming’ wine capable of winning you over from the very first sip thanks to its extraordinary smoothness and elegance.
Behind its pleasant, enveloping quality, however, lies an intense and powerful soul: substantial structure, great aromatic richness and a lingering finish that leaves its mark. Aromas of ripe red fruits, jam, spices and light toasted notes accompany a warm, velvety and incredibly satisfying palate.
A wine that manages to combine strength and harmony, personality and finesse, making every glass engaging and memorable.
Perfect with hearty meats, braised dishes, game, mature cheeses and convivial occasions where wine takes centre stage.
Alcohol: 16% vol.
