2009 Marcarini Barbera D'Alba Ciabot Camerano
We’ve devoted several of our sunniest vineyards to the cultivation of the Barbera grape, an ancient native variety of southwest Piedmont. In this privileged position, this rustic, humble and vigorous vine offers forth its best fruits. The grapes, picked fully ripe, are fermented according to traditional methods. After aging eight months in small French and Danubian oak barrels, the wine is passed into the bottle where it continues its evolution. Thanks to its extraordinary characteristics and structure, this wine has an excellent longevity. Its intense garnet color, clarity, and warm ruby-red reflections are indications of its exceptional richness and powerful structure. The full bouquet is characteristic, complex and very persistent, the palate austere and warm, its considerable full body accentuated; the wine’s superb balance and harmony are further exalted by sweet tannins. This wine is perfectly accompanied by important traditional meat dishes: it is superb with braised beef, game and aged cheese.
