MICHELE CHIARLO BARBERA D'ASTI LE ORME 2020 subregion_Cremant D`Alsace Very precise and well-balancedWhereas the wines of neighbouring Barbera d'Alba are known for their fruit forward intensity, those of Barbera d'Asti are appreciated for their delicate floral character, which nicely complements the Barbera grape's inherent tangy cherry flavour. This wine spent 16 months mellowing first in French oak casks and then in bottles before release. It'll make a lovely accompaniment to tomato risotto or pizza.
