Winery: Chateau Cadet Grape variety: Barbera Appellation: Piedmont Packing: 750ml/6 Grade: DOCG Alcohol content: 12% Vol Vinification process: After breaking the skins and de-stemming, the wine is macerated in stainless steel vats at a constant temperature for about 3 weeks, followed by alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, then a short vatting in stainless steel vats, and finally aging in medium-sized oak barrels for 12-14 months. The flavors of this wine develop complexity with bottle aging, yet it has a pleasing and approachable mouthfeel in its youth. Palate Description: Intense ruby color with deep purple hues, floral, fruity aromas reminiscent of ripe wild berries and Morello cherries - showing more complexity and spiciness on the finish, full-bodied and well-structured on the palate, with characteristic mineral notes on the finish. Table Wine Pairing: Great with stews, goat cheese.
