Enrico Serafino Barbera d'Alba Superiore Pajena 2023

Enrico Serafino’s 2023 Barbera d’Alba Superiore Pajena is a polished expression of Barbera from Canale, in the Roero area of Piedmont, combining ripe fruit with the grape’s characteristic lively acidity. Its name, drawn from local dialect and associated with lively conversation, celebrates the convivial spirit of sharing wine at the table.

Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red in the glass, it opens with fragrant aromas of red fruit and ripe grapes. The dry, full-bodied palate offers cherry, plum and blackberry, with lively acidity, balanced tannins and a lingering finish touched by redcurrant. Specific ageing guidance is not provided.

Production
The grapes come from vineyards around Canale, in the heart of Roero, where Enrico Serafino follows organic and sustainable farming principles to preserve the character of the landscape and fruit. Winemaking begins with a cold pre-fermentation maceration to draw out delicate aromas, followed by ageing in stainless-steel tanks to retain freshness and fruit purity.

Food & Serving
Serve with roasted red meat, game or aged cheeses. A serving temperature of around 16–18°C should suit its fruit and structure; decant for about an hour before serving to allow its aromas and flavours to open.
