Barbaresco Argè Magnum DOCG 2016 - Piazzo

Piazzo's Barbaresco Argè DOCG is a glass of pure Piedmontese elegance. Made with Nebbiolo grapes carefully selected in the vineyards owned by the Barbaresco area, it is an oenological masterpiece. It presents itself with an intense ruby red color. On the nose, notes of berries, spices and tertiary scents are perceived, thanks to the refinement in oak barrels. In the mouth, the lively acidity and well-structured tannins create a perfect balance, accompanying flavors of blueberry and cloves. Ideal to be enjoyed with red meat dishes or mature cheeses, this Barbaresco is also perfect for special occasions, where its complexity can be fully appreciated.

The Piazzo Comm. Armando winery was founded in the 1960s by Armando Piazzo and Gemma Veglia in San Rocco Seno d'Elvio, a hamlet in the Municipality of Alba. To date, the company can count on 70 hectares of vineyards in the municipalities of Mango, Neviglie, Guarene and Novello. The winemaking philosophy respects tradition especially for the production of Barolo and Barbaresco but with particular attention to cleanliness and innovation. In the cellar, the effort is at its maximum to make the most of the raw material, fruit of the sacrifices and work carried out in the vineyard. The wines produced are the soul of the territory, they stand out for their perfumed bouquets on the nose, with great body and structure but balanced and elegant on the palate.
