"The 2019 Barbera d’Alba Ciabot del Fi emerges from a vineyard in Serralunga.  Deep and fleshy in the glass, the 2019 is packed with dark fruit, leather, spice, dried herbs, menthol and licorice.  The 2019 was aged in cask, which helps round some of the edges while preserving plenty of intensity." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"This is the Barbera from the Serralunga d’Alba vineyard known as “Brea” that is situated on southeast facing slopes at 350 meters altitude in clay-limestone soil.  This 0.6 hectare vineyard was planted in 1975 and these old vines produce approximately 3,000 bottles of wine per annum, 900 of which are dedicated to the US market.  In contrast to the “Sori del Drago”, the “Ciaböt del Fi” cuvée is aged in a combination of stainless steel and 14-hl oak casks."
