San Michele Barbera dAsti Superiore DOCG 2018
$50.00 / 750 ml
Dried fruit aromatics with hints of herbs. A rich palate that lends to notes of earth, leather and tobacco as it decants. Richness from the oak, paired with the subtle tannins and acid produces a nice long finish. A well structured wine worth sipping.
