Winemaker Notes
This Barbera d'Asti Superiore is intense ruby red with garnet nuances. Its bouquet is exciting with sensations of dried fruit and jam with soft balsamic notes. On the palate it is rich, soft, and velvety with a hint of wood. This Barbera Superiore is best paired with roasted and braised meat, game, and seasoned cheese.
Carlin De Paolo is a fourth-generation family-owned winery with exclusively estate-produced wines. The Name Carlin de Paolo comes from two of the winery’s great patriarchs: Carlin and Paolo, Grandfather and great-grandfather, respectively. Paolo was an indefatigable worker, bent from the hard work carried out in the vineyards for many years. But he was always joyful; with his fist clenched as a sign of determination he was always striding forward.
Carlin de Paolo’s labels depict Paolo as a representation of their winemaking philosophy. They believe that the best ingredient of a wine is the honesty of the producer; with patched trousers and an open heart, the man on their labels represents a life of sacrifices, a deep love for family, and a connection to the soil. It is this honesty and passion for winemaking that comes across in their beautiful wines.
