The 2007 Barbera d’Alba Gallina emerges from the glass with a gorgeous array of violets, tar, smoke, minerals, plums and spices. This is a beautifully delineated Barbera with gorgeous freshness and clarity that carries through to the refined finish. Some of the weight of past vintages seems missing as the 2007 is built more on finesse rather than sheer power alone. The wine continues to grow in the glass, revealing plenty of minerality and a long, pure finish. It is a terrific effort from La Spinetta. The Gallina spent 16-18 months in French oak prior to being bottled. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2017. This is a highly successful set of new releases from La Spinetta. The wines show great balance and class across the board. Importers: Indigenous Selections, Fort Lauderdale FL; tel. (954) 530-4021 and Skurnik Wines, Syosset, NY (516) 677-9300

Very grapey, with tar underneath on the nose. Full-bodied and dense, with mineral, dark chocolate and fresh floral flavors, followed by a medium finish. A little more at the end would make this outstanding. Drink now. 660 cases made, 330 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbera d'Alba Select to Add
