Packed w/ dense fruit: blueberry, plum, great texture. Still has years
to go. Reaffirms Barbera as one of the great food wines for me.

2022 vintage. Tasted with the winemaker. Excellent punch, richness and drinkability. Medium-medium heavy body with a sustained fruity finish. $29 resto cost a bottle. Woulda picked up the last two cases available but recently committed to a few cases of another Barbera d'Alba that showed just as well. If I come across this on a resto list, I'll hit it. 02.07.25.
