Barbera d'Alba DOC Superiore Bonora »
Just above Canale d’Alba in Val del Pozzo is the farmstead of Filippo Gallino. The company was the first institution in 1972 to offer the market Roero Arneis and to initiate the sale of this bottled wine. The vineyards, which stretch over 14 hectares, are grown using natural techniques and pruning procedures that help to increase quality over quantity. The company has also been using the most advanced techniques for the management of the cellar utilizing thermo-controlled tanks for winemaking that allows for more readily available wine as well as the dual function of making the wine more fragrant.
Filippo Gallino Barbera d’Alba DOC Superiore Bonora is a deep intense ruby red in color and its fragrance contains notes of vanilla, raspberry, black currant and plum. It has a warm, long finish with flavors of fruit jam, cocoa and tannic. It is best served with the main course, with red meat, game and ripe cheeses.
