An authentic expression of Piedmont, it stands out for the use of \u003cstrong\u003eindigenous yeasts\u003c\/strong\u003e to preserve its integrity. The palate is muscular and full, led by a \u003cstrong\u003econcentrated dark fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e character of blackberry and cherry. Fine tannins and lively acidity support the powerful structure, finishing with a mineral note marked by clear hints of mint and liquorice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from Costigliole d’Asti, from the historic \u003cstrong\u003esingle vineyard Bionzo\u003c\/strong\u003e with a southern exposure. The approximately thirty-year-old vines, trained using the Guyot method, grow on \u003cstrong\u003ecalcareous and clay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e between two hundred and three hundred metres above sea level. This pedoclimatic configuration encourages a high aromatic density and ensures a \u003cstrong\u003elively acidic tension\u003c\/strong\u003e, essential for maintaining strict balance and remarkable freshness in the flavour profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe process maximises aromatic depth through a targeted \u003cstrong\u003edrying of the grapes\u003c\/strong\u003e for half of the harvest, while the remaining portion is vinified fresh. After maceration on the skins in stainless steel at controlled temperature, the wine rests for eighteen months in a harmonious blend of \u003cstrong\u003elarge oak casks\u003c\/strong\u003e and new French tonneaux. This careful ageing perfects the \u003cstrong\u003etannic texture\u003c\/strong\u003e and sweet spice notes, concluding with a final resting phase.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBarbera d’Asti DOCG Superiore Nuwanda originates from the historic \u003cstrong\u003esingle vineyard Bionzo\u003c\/strong\u003e, where thirty-year-old vines yield intensely concentrated grapes. Inspired by the strength of the Indian spirit, this organic wine develops its natural elegance by maturing in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. The drying of half the harvest deeply enhances the notes of dark fruits and sweet spices, offering a muscular and vibrant sip. Awarded the Gilbert \u0026amp; Gaillard Gold Medal, the 2022 vintage represents a masterful \u003cstrong\u003eartisan expression\u003c\/strong\u003e of Piedmont.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bel Colle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45187086778539,"sku":"56920","price":15.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/bel-colle-barbera-d-asti-superiore-nuwanda-2022_56920_1_615fa2a5-3e89-4357-857a-69a4f03db5a5.webp?v=1773768727","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-be\/products\/bel-colle-barbera-dasti-superiore-nuwanda-2022","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
