Villa Sparina's Rivalta is 100% Barbera that spent at least 14 months in
barrique, then in the bottle. Think black cherries, mint, pepper, vanilla and
coffee - it's soft, rich and elegant, a very enjoyable drink.

Add the
beautiful amphora-shaped bottle, and you have the perfect gift alternatively
impress your hosts at the next dinner party.

“Barbera is a wonderful
varietal for those of us that love juicy, ripe, frsh and easy going reds. A
noticeable step up from the entry estate Barbera, thre is depth of fruit, more
intense red berries and plums jumping out with a full yet supple mouthfeel. This
is so versatile as it will pair with the humble pizza or lasagna, soft cheeses
or even a dark chocolate dessert. My recommendation is to lightly chill it and
it will be your best friend at your summer BBQ.” Nick Daniell,
