Vigna San Michele

2020 Barbera D'alba Barbera

The Malvira Vigna San Michele Barbera from the 2020 vintage is a compelling expression of the Barbera d'Alba region, a celebrated area in Piedmont, Italy. This red wine enchants with a deep ruby hue and an inviting bouquet that mingles vibrant notes of red cherry, blackberry, and plum with subtle hints of spice and earthiness. On the palate, it reveals a medium-bodied profile that is both lively and well-structured, showcasing bright acidity that elevates its juicy fruit character. The tannins are well-integrated and offer a firm yet polished texture, making it an excellent choice for food-friendly pairings such as pasta with rich tomato sauce, grilled meats, and aged cheeses. This beautifully balanced Barbera exemplifies the region's winemaking prowess, delivering a harmonious and enduring finish. Malvira Vigna San Michele truly captures the essence of Barbera d'Alba, making it a delightful and approachable option for both seasoned enthusiasts and casual wine lovers alike.
