Expressive rich and elegant nose of cherries plums and spices. Well balanced acidity and fruit core. Light and fragrant with traditional piedmontese character. typical and easy to drink.

Tasting: Barbera d’Alba

Deep to very deep red. Rich if tarry nose, plummy, savoury. Fairly rich, supple, quite concentrated, but shows some astringency and the acidity seems harsh too. Medium length, with a green finish.

Tasting: Barbera d’Alba

Bright red. Vanilla and cinnamon mingle with sweet strawberry on the sexy but oaky nose. Then clean fresh and ripe, with bright acids and plenty of sweet fruit with smooth tannins.
