Barbera d'Alba 2001
Barbera d'Alba (Piedmont)
This Barbera shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red,
little transparency. The nose denotes clean, intense, pleasing and elegant
aromas which start with good hints of violet and black cherry followed by
good aromas of blueberry, blackberry, carob, plum, tobacco, licorice and
vanilla. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly
tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however well balanced by alcohol,
good body, intense flavors, good tannins. The finish is persistent with
good flavors of black cherry, plum and blueberry. A well made wine. This
Barbera ages for 6-7 months in cask.
