Araldica I Classici Barbaresco 'Corsini' Araldica I Classici Barbaresco 'Corsini'  Italian Piemonte red wine
Barbaresco 'Corsini' red Italian red Piemonte wine. Deep, intense ruby colour with noticeable tawny highlights. This is a wine packed with vibrant aromas of black cherries, violets and game. On the palate the wine has great structure and shows complex rich fruit, truffle and game flavours and ripe Nebbiolo tannins. Long, spicy finish.
Nebbiolo grapes are hand-harvested, de-stemmed and then crushed to four small fermenters, for 12 days, with daily pumping-over. This ensures good colour and flavour extraction, but avoids over extraction of the abundant Nebbiolo tannins. The wine is drained off at dryness, and the skins transferred to a small press. After pressing the wine is settled for two days, and then racked to oak casks where it is aged for 2 years. It is then racked from oak and gently natural egg white fined. Another 6 months maturation in bottle is completed before release.
