Monferrato is a violet and berry-scented Barbera which packs a powerful juicy punch on the palate backed by supple tannins and a refreshing burst of controlled acidity. This a great all-rounder red that deserves to be enjoyed more frequently.
Founded by the Moccagatta family in the 1970s in the hamlet of Monterotondo. Villa Sparina comprises 100 hectares of land, 70 of which are cultivated with local grapes for the production of Gavi and Barbera wine. The unique and eye-catching bottle shape corresponds to the Roman amphorae found in the truffle-rich grounds.
What the critics say:
"This forward Barbera has aromas of black plum and macerated cherries punctuated by intense floral and gamy notes. The palate is concentrated with a deep core of black hue fruits with fresh herbs, violets finishing with bright acidity, fine tannins and a hint of sea salt. "
"A fruity and racy barbera with some creme de cassis, cherries, dark chocolate and hibiscus flowers. Fruity on the medium- to full-bodied palate with a solid fruit core stacked with cherries and berries. Succulent finish. Drink now."
