Fabrizio Battaglino Munbèl Barbera d'Alba DOC Superiore — Vintage 2022 —
€ 18.50 incl. IVA
Munbèl is a fancy name that in Piedmontese dialect means ‘beautiful mountain’, a pleasant hill, hence a beautiful view.
Just like the San Michele hill, in Canale, where Fabrizio has been cultivating the vines that yield this Barbera for about 30 years.
As it is an old vineyard, grape production is limited, but the quality is excellent and the abundant clay content gives structure to the wine.
Fabrizio ages his Barbera in barriques for a year, but the wood is almost imperceptible and the result is amazing.
Sight
It is beautifully coloured, ruby red.
Nose
The scents evoke undergrowth and black cherries. A light dusting of spices arrives at the finish.
Taste
Powerful, yet soft, with flavours reminiscent of ripe red fruit, sweet and fleshy cherries. The finish is persistent.
Pairing tips
This is the aperitif wine in spring and summer: it is low tannic, easy, friendly and immediate! Shall we then talk about the pleasant hint of fruit?! Well, all you need is an appetiser to enjoy it.
If you then want to move on to the first course, choose it not too savoury or spicy. Fabrizio recommends tajarin with meat sauce.
It’s your guy if…
…You appreciate slightly international tastes, so yes to the colour, yes to the scent of fruit and no to the tannin. If you don’t particularly like Nebbiolo, this wine is for you, try it!
