With an alcohol content of 14.5°, this dry red wine strikes a perfect balance between intensity and elegance. The 2020 harvest yielded high-quality grapes thanks to favorable weather conditions, which contributed to the development of aromatic richness and depth of flavor.
Upon opening, the glass fills with a vibrant ruby color, accompanied by violet reflections that already hint at the wine’s freshness. On the nose, enveloping scents of ripe cherries and plums emerge, alongside delicate notes of vanilla and spices that reveal the aging in oak. A traditional bouquet with a modern twist that showcases innovation in the winery.
On the palate, the Raineri Sagrin impresses with its savory character and silky tannins, making each sip a true experience. The fruity notes blend harmoniously, while a slight acidity harkens back to the origins of Barbera, known for its freshness. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a pleasant aftertaste of dark chocolate and a hint of spice.
Perfect for convivial evenings, this wine pairs beautifully with typical Piedmontese dishes, such as tajarin with truffles, braised in Barolo, or aged cheeses. A wine not to be missed, capable of telling a story filled with passion and dedication expressed in every glass.
