San Silvestro Ottone I Piemonte Barbera DOC - Sartirano

This single-varietal Italian wine shows wonderfully expressive notes of blackcurrants, blackberries, black cherries and plums in the glass. There are also hints of other fruits.

The Sartirano San Silvestro Ottone I Piemonte Barbera is pleasantly dry for wine enthusiasts. This red wine is never coarse or austere, but round and smooth. The finish of this youthful red wine from the Piedmont wine-growing region, more precisely from Piemonte DOC, is convincing with a beautiful aftertaste.

Vinification of the Sartirano San Silvestro Ottone I Piemonte Barbera

This red wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, namely Barbera. Only first-class grapes were brought in for this wonderfully balanced single-varietal wine from Sartirano. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are transported to the press house as quickly as possible. Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally drawn off.
