Scarzello Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2024

Scarzello Barbera d’Alba Superiore 2024 is a structured, characterful Barbera from Cru Paiagallo, a historic vineyard site in the Barolo commune. Made by a family winery active since 1947, it combines expressive red-fruit aromas with extended maturation in wood.

Tasting Notes
The wine is described as a still red with a structured profile; specific details about its colour are not available. Red-fruit aromas lead into a deep, persistent palate, with the long maceration and barrel ageing contributing to its sense of structure and balance. Its robust style and reported ageing potential make it suitable for drinking now after aeration or keeping for further development. The producer information suggests it can age for up to around ten years; the exact evolution will depend on storage conditions.

Production
The Barbera grapes come from an old vineyard in Cru Paiagallo, in the Barolo area of Piemonte, where the site’s hillside character is said to bring intensity and aromatic richness. Vinification includes a long maceration to extract colour and structure, followed by at least twelve months of ageing in wooden casks. Harvesting methods are not specified.

Food & Serving
Pair it with game, mature cheeses or pork dishes. Decant for about an hour before serving to allow its aromas and palate to open. A serving temperature is not specified; for a structured red such as this, serve slightly below room temperature.
