PRODUCT OVERVIEW/REVIEW:
The Villa Sparina estate was purchased by Mario and Bruna Moccagatta in the late 1970s. Their vineyards stretch over 70 hectares in southern Piedmont. Here, the clay marl soils alternate with diluvial and gravelly soils, ideal for the production of rich, complex wines. Lying at altitudes between 800 and 1000 feet ASL, the vineyards benefit from the maritime influence of the Mediterranean, about an hour’s drive by car.*
The winery is known for its distinctive bottle shape. It was inspired by an old bottle that was discovered in the estate’s historic cellar.*
Villa Sparina is currently run by Mario and Bruna's children, Stefano, Tiziana, and Massimo.
The 2018 Villa Sparina Barbera del Monferrato was fermented in stainless steel and aged in a combination of stainless steel and seasoned oak barrels. It has aromas of violets and brambly red fruits that lead to a plush, medium-bodied palate of raspberries layered with notes of wet stone, balsamic, and herbs. Its fruit characters, tannins, and acidity are beautifully integrated, making it so easy to enjoy with or without food.
