Barbera d'Alba 2005
Barbera d'Alba (Piedmont)
This Barbera d'Alba shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby
red, little transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and
refined aromas that start with hints of cherry, plum and violet followed by
aromas of blueberry, blackberry, vanilla, chocolate, mace, tobacco 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
blackberry. This wine ages for 12 months in cask followed by 2 months of
aging in bottle. |
