"Una Barbera accattivante si mostra concentrata al naso nella fresca annata in Piemonte ed in generale in Italia. Corpo medio, struttura acida di piacevole scorrevolezza ed un finale luminoso ed essenziale. Non ha muscoli ma si regala poco a poco nel sorso. Bevi ora."

"Dunkles, sattes Granat. In der Nase würzig-kalkige Töne, nach Graphit, Lakritze, zart nach Brombeeren, dunklem Leder, im Nachhall getrocknetes Rosenblatt. Am Gaumen spannungsgeladen mit griffigem Tannin, zartem Druck, im Nachhall auch gewisse Saftigkeit, im Finale dann leicht nachtrocknend."

"Intensives und kraftvolles Purpurrot. Öffnet sich in der Nase nur zögernd auf schwarzen Holunderbeeren. Am Gaumen klar und saftig, mittelgewichtig, straff in Zug und Trunk, leichte Trocknung im Finale."

"This opens with delicate aromas of dark fruit and clove. The medium-bodied palate offers black plum, licorice and ground pepper alongside pliant tannins. Kerin O'Keefe"

"(2011) 14%. This Piedmontese Barbera has a touch of gamy character, but also a floral lift in a nose that is quite complex, with some old roses and cherry notes too. On the palate this is dry and has plenty of acidity and lean, sinewy tannin set against the crisp, cherryish fruit. This is certainly on the leaner side, with that lightly gamy, animal note adding to the savoury dryness in a wine that would be best with a big bowl of meatballs and spaghetti."

"The nose is fruity, elegant and offers finesse as well as a fine concentration. It reveals notes of fleshy cassis, cherry bigarreau and small notes of wild small fruits associated with a touch of crushed wild strawberry, blueberry / flowers as well as discreet hints of liquorice, spices, an imperceptible hint of blond tobacco and Timut pepper. The palate is fruity, elegant, well-balanced and offers a beautiful definition, finesse, a small tension, an aerial side, an acidulous frame, a fine suavity as well as a beautiful delicacy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, fleshy / juicy black cherry and small notes of fleshy wild berries associated with a touch of fleshy/ripe red fruits, blueberry as well as discreet hints of flowers, spices, oak / toasted, a very discreet hint of menthol and an imperceptible hint of mocha (in the background). Tannins are fine, elegant and structuring. There is an imperceptible hint of almond / hazelnut on the persistence (brings gourmandise and suavity). A beautiful wine!"

"Intense dark purple colour. The nose displays some new oak, roasted notes, pepper, gingerbread spice and dark cherry. The palate boasts a nice concentration and density backed by a vibrant freshness, some oak notes with ample dark fruit, ginger and clove notes with a long and lingering finish."

"This wine is smooth and aromatic in the nose, with a hint of tree bark. The palate is racy and full of cherry, but that cherry fruit carries a streak of sweetness that seems a bit out of place, given the usual darkness of the grape. Finish is full and round, with big tannins."
