To match the roasted venison fillets the restaurant serves Restaurant Ochsen in Zug the Barbera d'Asti Mongovone DOCG from Elio Perrone from Piedmont. 

 

Our tasting note

The Barbera d'Asti has a deep, dark and intensive colour. Its nose takes one by surprise with hints of spices such as cinnamon and vanilla, as well as plums and blackberry. The Barbera d'Asti is soft, juicy and comes alive on the pallet with a taste similar to blackberry jam, good integrated wood and long-lasting finish.
