'Side B' is a fascinating project where the family thinks outside the classic box. '29.5' represents the full cycle of the moon, from one new moon to the next. 'Side B' is the Barbera that Hilberg Pasquero considers the hidden gem on a record: not the dark side, but the true, unfiltered side. It's a straightforward red wine bursting with fresh fruit. After spontaneous fermentation of whole berries, the wine ages for a minimum of one year on its fine lees in a combination of wood and concrete. The result is an honest, vibrant wine without frills, made for people who appreciate authenticity and pure expression.
