Score 94/100 · Drink 2015-2026, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2013

Tar, smoke, licorice, game, pomegranate and savory herbs emerge from the cask-aged 2011 Barbera d'Alba Prephilloxera. Constantly changing in the glass, the 2011 is full of intense, dark notes that add complexity and an intense, brooding quality that is at times reminiscent of Aglianico. The 2011 is hugely appealing today, but it will be even better in a few years.
