CURIOSITY
Fin da piccolo, quando andavo in paese, mi sentivo chiamare “Cavalé”, un’espressione dialettale, che indicava il mio cognome, pronunciato in piemontese.
Cavalè
Barbera d'Asti superiore
The careful selection of the grapes guarantees the production of a wine with a broad structure, with a tannic and fruity density that is decidedly above average. With a Russian ruby color, rich in nuances tending to garnet, it is warm and soft on the palate, while the nose is velvety in aromas, with hints of vanilla and cherries. Definitely a wine for special occasions!
