This Barbera shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing and
refined aromas which start with hints of cherry, violet and plum followed
by aromas of blueberry, blackberry, raspberry and hints of menthol. In the
mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and
pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense
flavors, good tannins. The finish is persistent with flavors of cherry,
raspberry and plum. This wine ages in steel tanks.
