Tasting Note

Classy, easy to love Larigi. The oak is more in the background than usual, even at this young stage. Really sensual and very open. The palate is characterised by wonderful ripe, really juicy fruit with a sensual, tactile feel to it. A fine-ground touch of salt adds spark and interest to the raspberry and tayberry fruits. Beautifully composed.

Product Notes

Elio Altare Larigi Langhe Barbera is a unique and complex wine that is deeply rooted in the tradition of the Piedmont region in Italy. Made from the Barbera grape, the wine is aged for 18 to 24 months in oak barrels, which adds a rich and smoky depth to the wine. The resulting wine has a deep ruby red color that is matched by its intense aroma, which is characterized by notes of blackberries, cherries, and spices. On the palate, it is complex and full-bodied, with a well-balanced acidity and velvety tannins that provide a long, lingering finish. This wine is a perfect match for grilled meats, stews, and aged cheeses.
