Cantine Povero 'Contrada Maestra' - Barbera d'Asti

This 2020 Barbera d'Asti hails from Asti, Italy. Cantine Povero, established in 1948 with winemaking heritage dating back to 1837, aims to offer more than just wine - it's an experience in a bottle. Grown at 322m altitude, the wine bursts with bright flavors of cranberries, ripe raspberries, and blackberries, with hints of dried herbs and leather. It pairs perfectly with roasted root vegetables, tajarin pasta with truffles, or crispy duck breast.

To enjoy this Barbera d'Asti, simply open the bottle and pour it into a wine glass. It's best served at a cool temperature, around 16 - 18°C. Before drinking, let it breathe for a few minutes to enhance the flavors. As for storage, keep it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Don't shake the bottle vigorously as it might disrupt the sediment. This wine is ready to drink now, but it can also be stored for a few more years to develop more complex flavors.
