BARBERA D’ALBA SUPERIORE
 DOC
 GRAPE-VARIETY Barbera 100%
 AVERAGE YIELD 45 hl per hectare
 GROWING LOCATION Village of Serralunga d’Alba
 VINEYARD FEATURES 
The grapes are grown exclusively on estate-owned vineyards, facing 
east and south west in a high and mid-hillside position (300-350 m. 
a.s.l.). The soils are rich in clay and calcareous marl.
 WINE-MAKING PROCESS
 The fermentation traditionally takes place in stainless stee tanks at 
controlled temperature with frequent pumping over of the must to 
optimise the extraction of tannins and colour. The maceration lasts 
12-15 days.
 AGEING
 The Mirafiore Barbera d’Alba Superiore ages in big and medium size 
oak barrels (20 - 140 hl), in which the malolactic fermentation takes 
place before the end of the winter. The wine stays in wood for one 
year, and then is bottled before further ageing in the cellars for six 
months.
 TASTING CHARACTERISTICS
 The soil is the typical soil of Serralunga d’Alba, very rich in microele
ments, therefore these vineyards originate wines that express great 
character, with pronounced acidity and flavour. The colour is dark 
ruby-red with purple highlights; nose brimming over with leather, 
black liquorice, coffee and blackberry. This Barbera d’Alba starts out 
on the palate providing a warm feeling of volume and body, with the 
fruit blending marvellously with the soft tannins and the acidity, 
while its finish is long and savoury.
 ALCOHOL CONTENT 14% vol.
