The wine opens with a thick, black and dense appearance and segues to raw aromas of blackberry, cherry, tobacco, spice and natural rubber. There’s a vinous, chewy quality here that needs more time in the bottle to unwind.

Here’s an exceedingly friendly and approachable Barbera d’Asti Superiore with compact and clean aromas of mineral, tart fruit, hazelnuts and wild mushroom. The mouthfeel is fresh and there’s a touch of sweetness here that offsets the sharpness of the natural acidity.
