The estate’s 2005 Barbera d’Alba Superiore is one of the most delicious barrel-aged Barberas to come out of the region. It reveals notable purity and detail in its plump expression of jammy dark fruit intermingled with sweet toasted oak. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2010.
Hilberg-Pasquero is one of my favorite Piedmont producers, especially for Barbera. Working out of a tiny cellar in the town of Priocca in Roero Michele Pasquero and Annette Hilberg make wines with an emphasis on natural farming of the vineyards and a stripped-down, non interventionalist approach in the cellar. These are very pure wines loaded with personality.
