Paitin Barbera d'Alba Serra 2019

Robert Parker Jr.'s Wine Advocate: "You get tremendous value from the Paitin 2019 Barbera d'Alba Serra, which is fruity and bright but beautifully elegant as well. Barbera is known for its rich black fruit flavors and accessible personality, so it's a real treat to taste a wine that puts so much emphasis on the smaller details offered by the grape. These include tart blueberry, white cherry, exotic spice and crushed stone. There is some softness on the close, but the wine will be remembered for the linear and pristine nature of its fruit. Production stands at about 15,000." Jun 2021

Winery: Serra is the name our family since long time has assigned to the fresher and more delicate slope of the Serraboella. Historically voted for great Barbera. More evolved soils, richer, less dry, in a more closed and fresh valley, gives origin to rigorous wine, full but never opulent and balanced in their freshness. From some years now, in the Serra we do not have only Neive grapes but also a small portion comes from the Rivoli region of Alba.

We can date back our first bottle of Dolcetto to 1893, when we produced our first Barbaresco. The name Serra was used the first time in 1985 to evidence the hill where the grapes were originated.
