Made from old vines, it offers the concentration, depth, and character that Barbera fans prize, while showing the elegance and nuance that come with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this Barbera d’Asti typically shows a garnet hue with brick-toned edges, a sign of graceful development. The nose is likely to offer layered aromas of ripe dark cherries, plum, dried herbs, leather, and subtle spice, with earthy undertones emerging as it opens.\n\nOn the palate, it should feel vibrant yet polished, with Barbera’s hallmark freshness balancing mature fruit, savory notes, and a supple texture. The finish is expected to be persistent and refined, and the 2009 vintage now has the structure and complexity to drink well, though it may continue to hold interest for a little longer depending on storage conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough detailed vineyard information is limited, the name ‘Vieilles Vignes’ points to fruit from older vines, which generally yield lower quantities of grapes with greater concentration and intensity. As a Barbera d’Asti from Piedmont, it would traditionally be produced from carefully harvested grapes and vinified to preserve the grape’s natural brightness, generous fruit, and lively acidity, with aging in bottle helping to soften the wine and add complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs especially well with richly flavored dishes such as braised beef, roasted pork, game, mushroom risotto, and aged hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if the bottle has been well stored, to help the aromas fully unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecific background information on Poderi Bertelli is limited in the provided details.
