Giacomo Borgogno & Figli
Barbera d'Alba Superiore
Sort of disappointed with this bottle. Not as lucious and fruity as I remembered it. More Pinot noir style, mineral, high in acids. Still nicely integrated, hint of tanine

Aug 27th, 2022A more modern, rich and velvety Barbera with ripe blueberries and creamy raspberries. Rich, velvety structure with nice balance, juicy acidity and plush, velvety tannins. Almost syrupy on the palate. A bit too rich & overdone for my taste, and missing a sense of authenticity. But technically very well done.
