Barbera d'Alba Quass shows a deep ruby red color and nuances of purple red,
little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, refined and
elegant aromas which start with hints of cherry, plum and blueberry
followed by aromas of raspberry, strawberry, violet, blackberry, cyclamen,
cocoa, pink pepper and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the
nose, a tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol,
good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of
cherry, plum and blueberry. A well made wine. Barbera d'Alba Quass ages for
12 months in cask.
