Barbaresco Ausario Molino - Piemont DOCG 2020

Barbaresco Ausario DOCG 2020 75cl

Italy, Piedmont, Treiso, 100% Nebbiolo, 15% Vol.

Azienda Agricola Molino

Ruby red color with intense garnet reflections. A fine, elegant and complex aroma with fruity notes of red berries, blueberry and currant. The caressing tannins give a warm, soft taste full of delicate balance.

The grapes are harvested when fully ripe in the first half of October. Vinification begins in steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The young wine then matures for two years in wooden barrels, partly in barriques and in 500-litre tonneau.

Great ageing potential, but even as a young wine it goes excellently with red meat, mature cheese and game dishes.

Azienda Agricola Molino was founded in 1991 by Virginio Molino. Today, siblings Tommaso, Franco and Dario Molino run the family business. They produce excellent wines in their small winery on the Ausario hill outside Treiso in Piedmont. Barbaresco, Barbera, Dolcetto, Nebbiolo as well as Chardonnay and Arneis are grown on over 16 hectares. The heart of the winery is the Ausario vineyard, whose vines grow on white-gray layered clay in a favorable, windy microclimate. The strong, spicy wines with plenty of extract, moderate acidity and full-bodied character show that they come from old, well-tended vines.
