Araldica ALASIA Barbera d'Asti DOC Piemonte
Description: This is an attractive brick-red coloured wine, with aromas of ripe plums and spicy oak. It is medium-to-full-bodied, with notes of rich, sweet fruit, leather and tobacco. Soft acidity and fine tannins complete this appealing wine. Cellar for up to five years. Heading north and east from Alba, one enters the hill-rich DOC zone of Asti, south of the town of Asti itself. The name on its own is used only for the well-known sweet sparkling wine, Asti Spumante. However, the name Asti also combines with various varietal names to form what is called a 'multi DOC', hence the name Barbera d'Asti. The grapes in Alasia Barbera d'Asti are cultivated in vineyards in The Monferrato hills in the South of the province of Asti. The vineyards are southwest facing and are at an altitude of between 250 and 400m above sea level. The vines have an average age of 30 years. Vine density is 4,000 (6 x 75 cl) Price: £46.58

Araldica Alasia IL CASCINONE Sorilaria Arneis Montecillo d'Alba DOC Piemonte
Description: This unusual and concentrated white wine shows an interesting combination of fine mineral characters with floral notes, nutty almond intensity and rich white peach and pear fruit; very ripe, juicy and quite big in the mouth and on the finish, but with zippy balance and lingering length; the acidity is well balanced with the fruit, and the malo-lactic fermentation gives a creamy smoothness and structure to the wine. Arneis is a variety that really needs to be full on to work well, this is exactly that! Fruit for the Sorilaria Roero Arneis comes from the Sorilaria Vineyard in the commune of Monticello d'Alba. Situated at an altitude of around 280m, the 21 year old vines grow in clay chalky soil, and are trained in the classic Guyot system, producing an average of 8 Tonnes/ha. The vineyard is immaculate with great care and attention to detail shown by the fastidious grower Luigi Bertini. Just before harvest the grapes make a spectacular sight hanging in golden bunches at regular intervals along the vine. The grapes are hand-picked and pressed in modern pneumatic presses. 10% of the must is fermented in new French oak barriques, with the remaining 90% being cool-fermented in stainless steel.
