Barbera d'Alba La Foia 2008
Barbera d'Alba (Piedmont)
Barbera d'Alba La Foia shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby
red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean and pleasing
aromas that start with hints of cherry, plum and violet followed by aromas
of raspberry, blueberry and vanilla. The mouth has good correspondence to
the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good
body, intense flavors, pleasing crispness. The finish is persistent with
flavors of cherry, plum and raspberry. Barbera d'Alba La Foia ages for 6
months in barrique. |
