BARBERA D'ASTI SUPERIORE 'MONGOVONE' ELIO PERRONE 2021 - 50CL DESCRIPTION

Elio Perrone's Barbera d'Asti Superiore "Mongovone" is a label made with extreme care to enhance the value of old vines planted in the 1930s. This is a version of absolute excellence, very far from the young, ready-to-drink interpretations of the grape variety. Grapes of particular aromatic concentration and long ageing in wood reveal the more complex and harmonious character of the vine, which softens the exuberant freshness to express itself in a more harmonious, balanced and complex way.

"Mongovone," Elio Perrone's Barbera d'Asti Superiore, is the fruit of the great passion of one of Piedmont's most interesting vignerons, who makes great artisanal wines. The grapes come from the vineyards cultivated in the prized Mongovone area, among the absolute best suited for Barbera. The vineyards are located in a high hillside area, about 350 meters above sea level, with a wonderful sunny and well-ventilated midday exposure. The vines are about 80 years old and produce a few clusters of particularly rich aromas per plant. After the harvest is complete, the grapes are destemmed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine matures for 12 months in new French oak barrels and completes ageing with several months in the bottle.

The Barbera d'Asti Superiore wine "Mongovone," made by Elio Perrone, is a bottle that stands out in the panorama of Barbera labels because of its straightforward and authentic face, which brings out its full potential. The glass has a dark ruby-red colour with luminous purple highlights. The olfactory picture expresses intense and rich aromas of ripe cherries, dark berry fruits, black currants, blueberries, blackberries, black cherries under spirits, nuances of oriental spices and noble woods. The palate has a good structure, with ripe tannins well integrated into a fruity and dense aromatic sip, enhanced by elegant tertiary evolutions. The finish is long and very persistent, with savoury and very fresh closure, returning to pleasant spicy sensations. A label that reveals the noble face of the great Piedmontese grape variety.
