Hot plums. Bad bottle.

A touch of volatile acidity on the nose with an interesting fungal and truffle character. Plenty of brambly fruit with generous fruit tannins that create a layered texture.

Starting very soon, and only after I've tasted many more of the wines in my cellar, I want this to be my house red...

I used to love Vignetti Massa's wines. Now they are all just whacked with way too much new oak.

The master of Timorasso from Colli Tortonesi (southeast Piemonte) makes a juicy, unfined, unfiltered Barbera with only native yeasts and no oak at all to let the punchy, palette acidity shine as equally as the fruit. Thank you sir may I have another.

Scrumptious barbera with a little age to give it complexity. Yum.
