Piazzo Armando, Alba Piedmont, Italy

Piazzo Armando is an Italian historic winery at the heart of Langhe, run by the same family for three generations.

Barbera D'Alba DOC

There are areas on the hills of San Rocco Seno d’Elvio and Guarene where priority is given to the Barbera vine, Vineyards from which a strictly traditional winemaking process produces this blend: a Barbera d’Alba showing shades of ruby and scarlet, with frequent violet nuances.

Its expansive, stimulating nose is markedly fruity, with notes reminiscent of plum and jam. Floral overtones of rose petals accompany slight spicy hints of pepper and cinnamon. The taste appeals for its great structure, warm body and long aromatic finish.

Barbera d’Alba makes a good match for hors-d’oeuvres and well-structured starters like lasagne, and delicate or grilled meat dishes.

Vineyards: various, located on the hills of San Rocco Seno d’Elvio in Alba, and partly in the hills of the Roero, in Guarene

Varietal composition: 100% Barbera

Vinification and ageing

crushing of the grapes, and fermentation on the skins in steel. The wine evolves for 6-8 months in steel, followed by several months of ageing in the bottle, stored horizontally in underground cellars.

Alcohol: 13-13.5%

Colour: an intense burgundy with ruby highlights

Nose: fruity notes of blackberry, plum and jam, hints of rose petals, and a slightly spicy overtone.
