Marcarini, Ciabot Camerano, Barbera d’Alba, Piedmont, 2011

Tasting: Barbera d’Alba

Leather and violets concussion. Orange peel and almost reminiscent of Grand Marnier Bit unbalanced with firm tannins structure. Palate shows the better side of the wine with charming red fruits and sweet cooked fruit finish

Tasting: Barbera d’Alba

Dense deep plum. Fragrant and expansive nose of floral toned berry fruits. Highish acid, cherry menthol flavours, volatile.

Tasting: Barbera d’Alba

Opaque ruby purple, this stains the glass. Floral berries and herbs on the delicate nose. Then bright and fresh with lively dark berry fruit flavours and mineral nuances on the long high acid but smooth finish.
