Former Italian motocross champion Stefano Perrone, from Castiglione Tinella in the heart of Piedmont's Moscato region, makes exquisite wines. Stefano's specialty is the light, sparkling dessert wines made from the Moscato grape and exquisite reds, with his Elip Perrone NO now considered one of Italy's cult wines.

The Elio Perrone Mongovone is made from 100% Barbera grapes aged for 12 months in small, new French oak barrels. The Barbera d'Asti Superiore Mongovone 2020 is a full-bodied, opulent beauty. It offers a heady blend of blackberry jam, cloves, incense, chocolate espresso, and sweet French oak. The style is flamboyant, yet all the elements come together so effortlessly. Very elegant in structure, with a perfect balance of fruit, tannin, and finesse. Give it a year or two to lose some of its baby fat. The Mongovone comes in a unique bottle with equally unique sizes, as this wine is available in 1-liter and 0.5-liter bottles. This is the 1-liter bottle.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Deze 2021 Elio Perrone Mongovone Barbera d'Asti Superiore toont rijp bramenfruit met tonen van kruidnagel, wierook, chocolade-espresso en zoete Franse eik, elegante tannines en frisse zuurgraad die de volle smaak mooi in balans houdt. Daardoor werkt hij uitstekend bij varkensvlees, charcuterie, stevige kazen, pasta en pizza: de zuurgraad snijdt door vet en tomatensaus, het rijke fruit vult geroosterd of gekruid vlees aan en de subtiele eikenhouttonen passen bij gerijpte kazen; probeer hem bij gegrild varkensvlees met rozemarijn, langzaam gegaard porcetta of een salami- en paddenstoelenpizza voor het beste resultaat.

In Italy you don't just leave the family business. So Stefano Perrone, former Italian motocross champion, also went overboard. In the Piedmont, this family has been making delicious Moscato wines for generations. The 13 hectares of vineyards on the hills of Castiglione Tinella are mainly planted with barbera, moscato and brachetto (an almost forgotten native grape, also called the red moscato). Winemaker Stefano Perrone, since he took over in 1989, has ensured that the quality of the grapes has risen considerably and modernized the techniques in the wine cellar.
