This Barbera d'Alba opens with dark, sophisticated aromas of exotic spice, black fruit, toasted nut, cherry, root beer and licorice. There's a touch of natural rubber at the back and the wine offers some sweet fruit flavors as well.

The nose is rich and easy; packed with dark fruit, a touch of oak. Not terribly serious, but beautifully balanced and very likeable. The finish is short-medium, and the fruit stays with it. A comfort wine for comfort food.
