The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of purple red, little
transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and
elegant aromas which start with hints of black cherry, black berry and plum
followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, vanilla, tobacco, licorice,
cinnamon, cocoa, mace, pink pepper and mint. The mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by
alcohol, full body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is persistent
with flavors of blackberry, black cherry and plum. A well made wine. This
Barbera ages for 12 months in barrique.
