Santa Caterina Barbera d'Asti Superiore DOCG - Tenuta Colline

At the rim, there is also a color transition to garnet red. The bouquet of this red wine from Piedmont enchants with hints of blackcurrant, mulberry, blueberry and blackberry. If we trace the aromas further, dark chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon are added.

This Italian wine impresses with its elegantly dry taste. It was bottled with 4.5 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so, despite its dryness, this Italian naturally delights with the finest balance. Taste does not necessarily need a lot of residual sugar. On the finish, this storable red wine from the Piedmont wine-growing region impresses with its considerable length. There are again hints of blueberry and mulberry.
