Monferrato DOC 'Duedidue' 2017 (750 ml.) Marco Bonfante
The Monferrato Rosso 'Duedidue' by Marco Bonfante encapsulates in its meaning the diversity of the two grape varieties that complement each other, enhancing the characteristics of both: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Albarossa. Intense spicy aromas of red fruits and bell pepper blend well with a delicate hint of vanilla due to aging in barrique. On the palate, it is structured, enveloping, with a good tannic note from the Cabernet and Albarossa. The excellent balance between acidity, body, and alcohol allows this wine to be aged for over 15 years. With long aging in the bottle, complex tertiary aromas of cocoa and coffee will emerge.

THE COMPANY
The Bonfante family has been producing wines in Nizza Monferrato (AT), Piedmont, for eight generations, in an area that represents the excellence zone for Barbera d’Asti production and which obtained the “Nizza DOCG” designation in 2014. It is a family-run business. The owner, Marco Bonfante, a graduate of the Enological School of Alba, is a winemaker and oversees production and business management comprehensively. He is supported by consulting enologist Gianluca Scaglione, agronomist Daniele Eberle, and his sister Micaela Bonfante, who handles administrative management and logistical organization. The company presents an image of quality and seriousness, thanks to hard work, both in Italy and especially abroad. It took only a few harvests for it to become a strongly representative reality of this territory. In addition to the vineyards in Nizza Monferrato, the best grapes from other areas of the region contribute to a rich and versatile range representative of the most prestigious denominations in southern Piedmont. The produced grapes come from managed vineyards and selected vineyards, thanks to an intense and flourishing “nègoce” activity. All agricultural operations are monitored by the company agronomist until harvest. In the vineyard, thinning (also known as green harvest) is carried out to reduce the plant's production and improve grape quality.
