More about this wine from Italy
The "Barbarano" Riserva is crafted with meticulous care, a symphony of flavors orchestrated by skilled winemakers who have honed their craft through generations. The vineyards, cradled by the gentle slopes and embraced by the cooling breezes, bestow upon the grapes a character that is uniquely Colli Berici.
