Vite Colte Barbera d'Asti 2023
Vite Colte is a distinguished producer located in the Piedmont region of Italy, specifically based in Barolo. The winery operates as a collaborative project, bringing together hundreds of local winegrowers who focus on low yields and meticulous vineyard management to produce high-quality wines. Their philosophy balances traditional winemaking techniques with a spirit of renewal, ensuring each bottle expresses the authentic character and heritage of the Piedmontese terroir.
Wine Description
This Barbera presents a deep ruby red colour that often shades toward purple. The bouquet is opulent and complex, offering fragrant aromas of violet, cherry, and raspberry alongside deeper notes of liquorice and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is dry and full-bodied, featuring a silky texture and a concentrated profile of dark berries, forest fruits, and a hint of coffee. It is characterized by a vibrant, well-integrated acidity that provides freshness and balance, leading into a long, persistent finish with fine-grained tannins and delicate spicy notes.
Food Pairing
This Barbera is an excellent companion to rich pasta dishes such as lasagna or ravioli, and it pairs exceptionally well with roasted meats like beef or lamb chops. Its bright acidity also makes it a classic match for tomato-based sauces and aged cheeses like Fontina.
