The LaLu 2020 Barbera d'Alba DOC is a wine that captures the essence of the Piedmont hills, telling stories of tradition and winemaking passion. This Barbera, sourced from a selection of old vineyards, presents itself with an intense deep ruby color, testifying to the richness of its character. On the nose, the bouquet is enveloping, revealing notes of ripe cherry and plum, with a delicate hint of spices and a light floral nuance reminiscent of rose petals.
On the palate, the freshness is surprising: the acidity, typical of the variety, harmoniously pairs with soft and velvety tannins, giving the wine an elegant structure and remarkable persistence. The fruity notes evolve into a finish that recalls dark chocolate and damp earth, a distinctive element of the Alba terroir.
It is a wine that pairs beautifully with food, perfectly complementing typical Piedmontese dishes such as braised beef in Barolo or a porcini mushroom risotto. Aged cheeses also find an excellent companion in this wine, which manages to balance intense flavors and complexity. Whether served to celebrate a special moment or for an informal dinner among friends, the LaLu 2020 Barbera d'Alba DOC is a glass that cannot be missed, an invitation to explore the authenticity of Piedmont's winemaking tradition.
