Paolo Conterno
Bricco S. Ambrogio Barbera d'Alba
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Traditional style pretty floral notes and cherry wry pure expression no oak fresh fruit leaves the tongue salivating for food fine tannins. Very good

Dominant notes of ripe, juicy cherries mixed with raspberries. Followed by liquorice and moderate leathery tannin that fills the palate. There is some young vibrant acidity that adds exciting flavour and is well balanced for its age. Will only get better with time. 14.5% alcohol. A bolder and rounder version of the Retiche Nebbiolo that I recently had. Served with Polish cabbage rolls in a red tomato sauce

Nice fruit, not jammy and it drinks very light but packs a nice punch

Very light Barbera with nuanced strawberries on the nose and a higher acid note on the palate. If paired with cured meats could be quite nice!
