Barbera d'Asti DOCG Le Orme, Moscato d'Asti DOC Nivole

This box contains two typical and representative Piedmontese expressions of the Asti area offered by the Michele Chiarlo winery.

Barbera d'Asti Le Orme 16 Months comes from vineyards located south of the Asti area. It derives from a vinification with 10 days of maceration on the skins. As the name suggests, once the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations are over, it ages in steel for 16 months. It shows a ruby red color with purple reflections. The nose revolves around fruity notes of raspberry and cherry that pave the way for an elegant spicy component. Fresh and savory on the palate, it just lets you perceive its tannins that integrate perfectly with your body and make it more intriguing to drink. It goes well with roasts and stewed red meats but can also accompany a good pizza.

Moscato d'Asti Nivole derives from vineyards located on soils composed of marine sediments and white soils. The harvest is followed by a light pressing and fermentation in an autoclave at a controlled temperature, a phase in which its typical effervescence develops. It presents itself to the eye of a straw yellow color. The olfactory profile is a set of floral notes and sage aromas with fruity hints. The sip is slender and smooth, pleasantly fresh. Excellent to combine with desserts, especially those based on hazelnuts.
