Cellar for up to 10 years. Decant for up to an hour before serving.

This Barbera d’Alba begins with a bright bouquet of red fruits, supplemented by tobacco smoke, liquorice, leather, oak, and herbal hints of cola. It is made from 100% Barbera, plucked from a small parcel of land in the Baricchi estate, where the vines grow on clayish, mineral-rich soil.

Founded in 1989 by Natale Simonetta and his wife, Francesca, Cascina Baricchi is a small-scale family winery in the Langhe region of Piedmont, in Northern Italy. The region is well known for its high-quality grapes, thanks to the mediating influence of the Alps to the north, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south.

This is a classic Barbera d’Alba, bursting with high acidity, balanced, finely-grained tannins, and a steely, bright character. The fruits were fermented in stainless steel tanks, before aging for 2 years in neutral barrels. Just 6,000 bottles of Riva della Coda are released each year. On the palate, you can discover notes of strawberry, raspberry, and red cherry, with complex undertones of leather, vanilla, and dried herbs. It’s a great wine for pairing with earthy mushroom-based dishes, as well as a variety of red meats.
