BARBERA (grafted)

Out of Stock

Barbera produces good yields, and is known for deep color, low tannins, and high acidity when grown in hot climates. Barbera produces an intense red wine, with a fruity, floral nose and distinct flavor of red fruits and black cherries. Many producers use toasted oak barrels, which provide a high level of complexity, aging potential, and hints of vanilla. Barbera-based wines tend to go with Italian food such as antipasto, pasta with tomato or vegetable sauce, and pizza.
