Barbera d'Alba “Conca Tre Pile” 2022 by Aldo Conterno is a red wine of great intensity and precision, combining the typical vitality of Barbera with a deep and refined structure. In the glass, it presents a dense and luminous ruby color. On the nose, clear aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, and plum emerge, followed by elegant notes of sweet spice, cocoa, and a light balsamic hint. On the palate, it is full and enveloping, with lively yet well-integrated acidity, soft tannins, and a long, harmonious, and persistent finish. A Barbera of great character, also designed for bottle aging.


 Production Method: Conventional. The grapes are 100% Barbera , sourced from the “Conca Tre Pile” vineyard, located in a naturally fertile valley in the Langhe. The harvest is manual, with careful selection of the bunches. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, with maceration on the skins to extract color and structure. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages for approximately 8 months in French oak barriques , followed by a period of bottle aging before release, to achieve balance and complexity.


 Pairings : Perfect with rich Piedmontese dishes: tajarin with ragù, roast red meats, braised meats, light game, and medium- and long-aged cheeses. Also excellent with savory mushroom dishes.
