La CasacciaBricco dei Boschi Barbera del Monferrato 2018

About this wine

La Casaccia's Barbera del Monferrato is one of those wines that shows what Piedmont does best with its native grapes. This 2018 vintage from the Bricco dei Boschi vineyard brings together everything you want in a weeknight red that's still special enough for guests.

The nose opens with ripe red fruits and subtle oak notes that add depth without overwhelming. On the palate, it's round and soft with a structure that keeps things interesting, finishing with good length that invites another sip.

Serve this at 16-18°C alongside roasted meats, pasta with rich tomato sauces, or aged cheeses. It's particularly lovely with a classic risotto alla piemontese or grilled sausages.
