About the wine
The Sartirano family, whose San Silvestro winery is based in Novello, has been reinterpreting the passito based on the Barbera grape for three years. Half of the grapes stay on the vine longer to achieve a concentration of aromas and sugar, while the other half is dried. The vinification takes place separately, and after fermentation, the wines are blended and aged in French barriques for six months. The full-bodied flatterer also visually impresses with a clear and trendy label.
Item no. 1213582
Tasting note
Medium ruby red with shades of purple. At the beginning, a typical Barbera nose unfolds with aromas of red and black fruits, plums and blueberries, followed by roasted aromatic notes of nougat and milk chocolate. On the palate, the wine is balanced and intense, the fruit shows a nice maturity and clarity, with Piedmontese freshness, fine melting and balanced structure. In the well-composed finale, it remains aromatically present throughout.
Culinary recommendation
Ideal for starters such as house pâté or wild terrines, dark mushroom sauces, stews and dark poultry such as duck or guinea fowl. It also goes well with various types of steak, grilled meat and semi-hard and hard cheeses such as Sbrinz or mountain cheese.
