Our Tasting Note: A deep purple red core, vibrant edges slightly lighter.  Med+ nose grows in the glass.  Deep blackcherry, blackberry, balsamic, subtle spices, deep but a brightness.  The palate shows med/med+ body, good density and elegance, med+ to high intensity and a med+ finish.  Coravin new tap so expect this to only grow more with air on the dinner table.

The Barbera d’Alba D.O.C. Superiore is a wine with great structure and intensity. The attention to detail is the secret of high quality and concentration from old vineyards and ideal expositions with a ridiculously low production per hectare. The different vineyards are vinified separately and just the best results are used. 
Vineyards: From 2 sites: Magliano Alfieri (88 y/o vines) just north of Alba and just south of Roagna on SP2. Then from Roddi like the Langhe Nebbiolo from 45-80 y/o vines.
Vinification: Maceration with skin contact 22-42 days depending on the vintage
Maturation: 9/12 months in big tank of Oak (neutral Austrian Oak ) and used tonneaux (neutral)
