Tasting notes

Vibrant ruby red in the glass with purple highlights. The nose reveals fresh red cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle hints of violet and spice. On the palate, it shows bright acidity characteristic of Barbera, with juicy red fruit flavours, plum, and a touch of black pepper. Medium-bodied with soft tannins and a lively, refreshing finish that leaves notes of tart cherry and minerality. The wine displays an approachable, food-friendly character with balanced structure.

About this wine

Vite Colte's Rosso Fuoco is a quintessential expression of Barbera d'Asti DOCG from Piedmont's renowned wine region. This red wine showcases the characteristic elegance of Barbera, a grape celebrated for its bright red fruit profile, peppery spice, and mineral-driven complexity. At 13% ABV, it strikes a refined balance between intensity and freshness, making it an approachable yet sophisticated choice for discerning palates.

Barbera d'Asti DOCG wines are defined by the region's limestone-rich soils and continental climate, which impart a distinctive mineral character and vibrant acidity. Vite Colte's interpretation reflects the producer's commitment to highlighting the grape's natural structure and food-friendly nature. The light intensity and fresh character of this red make it remarkably versatile at the table.

Pair this Barbera with venison, charcuterie, cured meats, and rich pasta dishes. Its spicy notes and mineral backbone also complement roasted poultry and pork preparations beautifully, making it an excellent choice for fine dining and private villa entertaining across the Mediterranean.
