A non-vintage Spumante Metodo Classico from Bricco Carlina, made from 100% Barbera vinified as a blanc de noir. An unconventional choice of base grape for traditional-method sparkling wine, reflecting the estate's playful, experimental streak.
Making a blanc de noir from Barbera instead of a classic red grape is a bold move — Blan de Nuar earns its place as a genuine conversation piece.
