Barbaresco "LINTUITO" DOCG MONTALBERA

This sensational red wine is produced in Piedmont with 100% Nebbiolo. The grapes are harvested when they reach the perfect maturation. After the pressing, the fermentation is activated naturally by local lees. The aging is divided in two phases: first, it is developed in tonneaux made of French oak, and then it continues in the bottle, where the wine rests horizontally at controlled temperature.
