Tasting Notes: Bagardo” is a red wine made from Nebbiolo grapes; it is the result of meticulous processing and an excellent vintage. It is the clearest expression of the way the wine makers think quality wine should be made, with no added sulphites and we could not agree more. The expression is absolutely beautiful especially in 2018, it is very elegant and precise. The combination of steel and wood tank in aging process, gives to this wine fresh and fruity sensations. The grapes after harvest macerate for about 20 days. Affinage takes place in old wood barrels and stainless steel for 10 months and then an additional 4 months in bottle before release. This is a really special wine.
