Oltrepò Pavese Barbera 2005

Emanuele      Antwerpen  (Belgium)

Maybe you know the Barbera from Piemonte....you should try the one from the Oltrepo Pavese!!
The Albani estate grows their grapes using agricultural methods that are sustainable, thereby allowing us to attain that originality of style that can only be transmitted to a wine naturally by an individual site. They pay great attention to the land, especially in respect of the wild vegetation that springs up between the rows, so enabling the vines to grow in complete balance. They strictly refuse to use chemical fertilizers. Neither they use any systemic products, herbicides, insecticides or anti-botrytis treatments.
