2019 Scarpetta Barbera del Monferrato

2019 Scarpetta Barbera del Monferrato We collaborated with Fabrizio Iulli in Monferrato Piemonte to create this Barbera. Monferrato is the birthplace for Barbera. While it is made in other spots in Piemonte it is here where Barbera shows the balance of fruit and acidity._x000D_
