Barbera d'Alba Superiore I Filari de I Maschi 2000
Le Vigne di Canova (Italy)
Barbera d'Alba (Piedmont)
The wine shows a beautiful aspect and a ruby red color with nuances of purplish
red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense aromas and good personality,
mainly of fruit, such as raspberry, blackberry and plum followed by elegant and
interesting aromas of coffee, chamomile, chocolate and hints of toasted. In the
mouth the Barbera express its typicality with a crisp attack, however well
balanced by tannins and alcohol. Good correspondence to the nose and good
intensity of flavors. The finish is persistent with pleasing hints of plum and
raspberry as well as chamomile. This wine is produced with maceration of
skins for 14 days followed by an aging in cask for about one year.
