Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧✭

Barbera d'Asti Superiore Nizza Vignali shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas that start with hints of cherry, plum and blueberry followed by aromas of dried violet, raspberry, vanilla, mace, cocoa, tobacco, clover and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a properly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, pleasing crispness and roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of cherry, plum and blueberry. Barbera d'Asti Superiore Nizza Vignali ages for 12 months in cask and barrique followed by about 36 months in bottle.
