Description
Made by Giacomo Conterno, the Vigna Francia is a Barbera dāAlba produced from the Cascina/Vigna Francia single-vineyard in Serralunga dāAlba. The wine is vinified from Barbera grapes (the production rules allow 85ā100% Barbera) and, following the estateās traditional approach, is typically aged in large oak casks for about two years. The bottle bears the āvignaā designation and shows a profile of red fruit, lively acidity and savory/spicy nuances.
