Tenuta Montemagno - Invictus Ruché DOCG

This Barbera is produced from the oldest vines on the estate, with medium to late harvesting and fining in Allier oak barrels. It perfectly reflects both the characteristics of the grape (with its power, fruitiness, freshness and crispness) and those of the terroir (with its finesse, mineral aromatic complexity and harmonious tannins), to which it has acclimatised perfectly.
