Pop a pour (can’t be helped).

NOSE: pomegranate, blueberry,

TASTE: nice acidity, dense berry, bitter herbs. Needs age or air, but still good. 90.

Started as a fruit bomb but gained some balance with air.

Garnet ruby color. Nose- black fruits, earthy, tobacco, tar. Nice smooth tannins, earthy palate. Cork was of poor quality.

Great Barbera with valid meaning to the Superiore tag…superior balance, body, flavor, smoothness on the palate and other accoutrements of a finer Barbera.

A rich and powerful Barbera with balance acidity. Oak is prominent but of high quality and well integrated, as one would expect from La Spinetta.
The first red they made back in 1982.

Очень хорошее, мягкое, в меру кислотность и черносливовость, очень приятное.

A little darker version of Barbera. Dark cherry, red berries, earthy and tannic.
