The Barbera d' Alba 2009 impresses for its silkiness, finesse & sheer harmony. This is a mid-weight vintage for the Barbera, but here, too, the wine's balance is totally irresistible. This shows lovely mid-palate pliancy in a feminine style that is incredibly appealing. Sweet dark cherries, flowers & subtle hints of French oak linger on the polished, impeccable finish. Limited stock, 2014 vintage coming soon.
