Tasting notes
The 2004 Barbera d'Asti Costamiolè presents a core of silky-textured fruit buffered by a vein of acidity that is the hallmark of Barberas from Asti. There is lovely density and richness here, along with notes of French oak and sweet spices that add an additional layer of complexity.

There is lovely density and richness here, along with notes of French oak and sweet spices that add an additional layer of complexity. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2012. I was very impressed with the wines I tasted from Prunotto this year. A Leonardo Lo Cascio Selection, Winebow, Montvale, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
