Elio Filippino Barbera d'Alba 'Vigna Veja' Rouge 2023, 75 cl

Origin / Estate

On the right bank of the Tanaro River, not far from the town of Alba, lies the picturesque village of Neive. It was here that Evaristo Filippino started his new wine estate in the early 1900s. Elio Filippino is now the third generation at the helm. He honours traditional values with the utmost respect for both the environment and the surroundings.

“Vigna Veja” refers to the old vines used for this wine. They were planted in 1954.

The wine ages for 18 months in oak barrels from the Allier region, followed by two months in stainless steel tanks. It is finally bottled and rests for another 6 months before being released.

Description

Deep ruby red colour with purple hues. Intense aromas of fruit combined with wood and vanilla. A robust wine with full flavour, lots of body and a subtle spiciness.
