The 2008 Barbera d’Asti Tasmorcan is soft and expressive in its dark fruit, spices and tobacco. The aromas and flavors are already rather forward, suggesting the wine is best enjoyed over the next year or two. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2011.
Stefano Perrone remains a reference-point producer for Moscato.
