Montalbera L'equilibrio, Barbera d'Asti Superiore DOCG, Italy 2022

L’Equilibrio Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG 2022 is a polished, full-bodied expression of Barbera from Piedmont, offering the grape’s signature vibrant acidity alongside impressive richness and depth. Aromas of ripe red berries, raspberry, blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and forest floor lead into a supple, beautifully balanced palate with juicy fruit, integrated tannins, and a long finish. Aged 10–12 months in French barriques, tonneaux, and large oak casks, it delivers the kind of structure and refinement that makes Barbera such a fantastic partner for serious food.
