About this wine
An elegant, austere, and noble wine made from Nebbiolo grapes, displaying garnet red color with orange tinges and ethereal, spicy fragrances with light vanilla and flowery notes. Bera's entry-level Barbaresco, blending fruit from its Neviglie, Neive, and Barbaresco plots.
A refined entry point into serious Nebbiolo, more approachable in youth than Barolo.
