Depicting the antique 1775 military uniform from the regiment from the province of Asti, this is one bottle in a historic line of wines (each with its own military uniform on the front label) from Renato Ratti. The 2018 Barbera d'Asti Superiore Villa Pattono delivers dark cherry and plum, all supplemented by a balanced note of fruity sweetness. This is a plump, simple and ultimately very food-friendly red wine with tons of local Piedmont character. Production is 6,000 bottles.
