The Barbaresco “Asili” by Ceretto comes from one of the most prestigious crus in the Langhe, the renowned Bricco Asili, an emblem of elegance and refinement. From this historic vineyard, vinified in purity since the 1970s, a wine is born that combines aristocratic finesse and expressive power, in impeccable balance. On the nose, it releases notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, underbrush, and dried flowers, while on the palate it stands out for its structure, silky tannins, and depth, with extraordinary persistence and a aging potential that easily exceeds 20 years. Perfect for important moments and great occasions, the Barbaresco Asili pairs elegantly with high-end dishes such as roasts, braised meats, game, and aged cheeses, but also surprises alongside traditional Piedmontese recipes such as tajarin with truffles or fritto misto alla piemontese.
