Duedidue Monferrato DOC Rosso

Just like Marco and Micaela cooperate perfectly at the the guide of the company, in the same way the union of two grape varieties, Barbera and Cabernet Sauvignon, is at the basis of the production of one of the crus of the winery: the Duedidue. This name encloses in its meaning the diversity of the two grape varieties which complete each other and exalt the characteristics of both.

Vineyard: The soil is rich of calcareous clay marl. Exposition: south, south-east. Altitude: 250 mt. asl. The microclimate is influenced of sea winds which favour the integrity and the ripening of the grapes. The good temperature range allows to have fragrant, fine and elegant wines.

Tasting: In the glass the Duedidue shows an intense purple-red. In the nose it has intense spiced aromas, with scents of red fruits and pepper, with a slight wood note due to the ageing in French barriques. On the palate it is structured, velvety, with a good tannic note given by Cabernet. The great balance between acidity, body and alcohol makes the Duedidue a wine which could be stored for over 15 years. With the long refinement in the bottle it will develop aromas of coffee and cocoa.

Service temperature: 16°-18°(62°F-66°F)

Food pairing: We recommend the Duedidue with typical dishes of the Piedmont tradition like braised meat and veal “stracotto”. Perfect with lamb loin with herbs and mountain cheeses.
