This opens with ripe, almost jammy, notes of strawberry and black cherry followed by sweet almond and spice scents. There's a touch of sweetness on the close that's backed by a plush, succulent mouthfeel.

Barbaresco Ad Altiora is characterized by plumpness and ripeness of fruit. That rich, natural succulence is backed by firm tannins and drying sensations of exotic spice, licorice and tobacco leaf. The balance between those two extremes is what sets this bold red wine apart.
