Barbaresco Bric’Micca
Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita
Made from Nebbiolo grown on the Cascina Micca vineyards, this wine is aged for a total of 24 months in both big Slavonian oak casks and small French oak barrels, followed by a further 12 months in the bottle prior to its release.
The result is a fullbodied wine conjuring up blackberry, red currant and sweet spices. Highly-rated tannin framework.
This wine’s power is shown at its very best with feathered game, or – for the less inclined to labour over the stove – with a board of mature cow’s milk cheeses, such as Castelmagno and Bagoss di Bagolino.
