Description

This Monleale is a red wine produced in the Colli Tortonesi by the Vigneti Massa agricultural company, with Barbera grapes grown in various historic plots such as Bigolla, Campolungo, Fontana, Casareggio, Vignetta due, Cerreta, and Vecchia Cerreta. These vineyards, located between calcareous and calcareous-clay soils with mainly east and west exposures, create a mosaic of terroirs that give rise to a wine with authentic and territorial character.

The vinification takes place according to traditional methods with daily pumping over for 8-10 days, racking on the 4th or 5th day, and gentle pressing. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels for over 22 months. Some selected versions originate from specific plots and are bottled without filtration, ensuring integrity and evolutionary potential.

In the glass, it presents a deep red color. The nose offers a complex bouquet with notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and an earthy undertone. On the palate, it is broad, energetic, and persistent, with well-integrated tannins and a long, savory finish that enhances the natural freshness of the grape variety.

It pairs perfectly with braised dishes, game, aged cheeses, or mushroom-based dishes.
