La Spinetta
Cà di Pian Barbera d'Asti Superiore
Asti, Piedmont, Italy
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.

Strong and a little spicy, would be great with any smoky flavor. Starts dry. Beautiful!

Oct 19th, 2021Excellent, dry Barbera D' Asti Superiore. 2017 vintage. Had at a restaurant in Austin, great "find". Again, Superiore (pronounced "Super- roar-e", this is not Spanish). Big and fairly bold for a Barbera, aromatic and flavorful purple dark berry soft smooth palate balanced balanced light tannins. Didn't taste all those weird things some peeps did...maybe more later if wine can be found for a next time ...will buy again when at Osteria 68 Degrees.
