Tasting notes
The 2022 Barbera D'Alba Superioreis slightly deeper ruby red and has a pretty, floral perfume of violets, fresh blackberries, and sweet herbs. The palate has a ripe, yet refreshing and snappy feel, and while it was a hot vintage, this is certainly an example where Barbera can retain its acidity and thrive. It’s crispy and fresh and has a delicate note of oak spice that frames the wine, followed by a lasting perfume on the finish. Drink over the next 10 years.

Magenta with a purple tinge, the 2022 Barbera D'Alba is fresh with notes of wet stones, plummy fruit, and fresh lavender. The 2021 is more snappy, but the 2022 is a fruitier vintage, with medium body, a velvety texture, good richness, ripe tannins, and a rounded feel. It has a lot of immediate appeal and casts a large net.
