Rinaldi Rioglio Barbera d'Asti

A magnificent Northern Italian red wine displaying an intense ruby red color with brilliant purple reflections. Sourced from the estate's carefully tended rolling vineyards, the highly complex nose opens with an elegant, persistent, and beautifully refined bouquet dominated by fresh red cherries, wild strawberries, and ripe plums. This primary fruit character is masterfully layered with sophisticated notes of red rose petals, subtle warming baking spices, and a light hint of earthy underbrush. Vinified cleanly with 10–12 days of skin maceration in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, the medium-to-full-bodied palate perfectly balances its juicy, primary cherry core and the grape's signature vibrant, mouth-watering freshness with a dry, wonderfully full, and harmonious texture, leading into a clean, balanced, and remarkably persistent finish.

Food Pairing: Exceptionally versatile for daily enjoyment, it pairs flawlessly with rich pasta dishes with savory meat ragù, mushroom risottos, artisanal wood-fired pizzas, roasted poultry, and medium-aged cheeses.
