Description
Barbera d'Alba, Pio Cesare, Langhe DOC, Piedmont, Italy, 2021
Grape: 100% Barbera, aged in medium-toasted French oak barriques (25%) and 20-50 hectolitre casks (75%) for 11 months
Producer Tasting Note:
Aromas of blackberries, plums and ripe berry fruit with a touch of spice and tobacco. On the palate this wine is supple and juicy with a great fruit and complexity.
Critic's Tasting Note:
"A lovely and fresh barbera with crushed raspberries, blueberries and crushed stones. Medium body. Fine tannins and a bright finish. A firmness and focus to this. Drink now."
91/100 points, James Suckling, June 2023
Food Match: Why not try with pork chops or braised lamb?
