A slightly rainy day today so what better to cheer us up than a beautiful Italian red? Today we have our beautiful...

Barbera d'Asti Stella Rossa, Marco Bonfante 2014 @ £13.95




Purple with pronounced garnet-red reflections. Reminiscent of violets or even of morellos. Wonderfully rounded, full-bodied and with a lively and exacting acidity matching with well-balanced tannins.

Like flowers, trees and vines, the Bonfante family has its roots down into the land. They are set in the south of Piedmont and take sap from a long tradition of winemaking. Today Marco and Micaela carry on the family tradition of selecting grapes and producing wines in Barolo, Nizza Monferrato, Gavi and the Roero area.

Come and have a taste today! This one really does stand head and shoulders above the crowd.
