Bersano 1997 Generala Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)
- $34
Rich and open from the start all the way through to the end. Abundantly ripe, with deep cherry fruit that sings. Really solid, with the smoothest finish you could ask for. A good one for the next several years.

Bersano 2007 Cremosina Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)
- Online Exclusive
Here’s a softer, modern interpretation of Barbera d’Asti Superiore with velvety oak tones that surround a bright core of berry fruit. This wine is thicker and more extracted than most with slight hints of smoke and tobacco at the back.

Bersano 1997 Costalunga Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)
- Best Buy
- $12
Deep dark chocolate aromas with an appealing orange scent. Medium-bodied, with a precise if slightly sharp cherry flavor. The finish is medium in length, with tartness balancing things off. Everything here is good: the mouth, finish and price. Best Buy.

Bersano 2001 Cortese (Gavi)
- Best Buy
- $12
Full aromas of melon and peach that are clear and focused distinguish this wine. It’s citrusy, emphasizing orange and grapefruit, but under that a core of green apple provides a firm foundation. Tight on the finish, but then it spreads out. Squarely on the money for the style, and likely up to fine food, say grilled branzino.

Bersano 2004 Moscato (Moscato d'Asti)
- Best Buy
- $8
Not an intense nose, but an attractive one with floral and fruity layers. There’s chalk, peach and generous cream in the mouth, which beg for all kinds of cream or custard-based desserts. Imported by 5 Star Importers.

Bersano 2007 Ca d'Galdin Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)
- Online Exclusive
Apparent notes of coffee and freshly ground espresso appear at first and are followed by chocolate, cherry and raspberry. This is a modern, plump Barbera that will appeal to those who like a softer, more supple style.

Bersano 2007 Barbera (Barbera d'Asti Superiore Nizza)
- Online Exclusive
Here’s a heavily oak-influenced Barbera with distinctive tones of spice, tobacco, wood, bramble and forest floor. There are red fruit notes in there, mostly masked by the wood. Give this wine two or three more years of bottle aging to find harmony.

Bersano 1997 Badarina Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $49
Tight and traditional, which doesn’t mean harsh. The nose melds raisin, leather and cedar, while on the palate you get a fine mix of plum, cherry and raspberry. A modicum of layering on the smooth finish completes the package.
