Renewing means keeping up with the times, always questioning, experiencing modernity with the wisdom and experience of the past, for this reason the Barbera d'Asti DOCG Lequilibrio is the wine of today and of the future ... described by majoritarian sensorialist as a small champion of gustatory suadenza really fabulous.
Intense ruby-red.
Flavours of red berries jam, raspberry and blackcurrant interchanges with hints of dark chocolate and underwood.
Persistent and soft, with an embracing and harmonious tannic weave, with a good and balanced acidity typical of Barbera.
