Barbera from Asti is noticeably different from Barbera from Alba. You will recognize Asti for the brighter aromas, the tart fruit flavors and the freshness. The Vietti 2020 Barbera d'Asti La Crena makes this point with lifted aromas of sour cherry, unripe plum and pomegranate seed. The wine remains juicy and very fruit-forward, but the high tones are given more prominence here.

Broad and rich, this red reveals black cherry, blackberry, plum and loam flavors, with a hint of baking spices. Heady and lively, finishing with saturated fruit and spice accents.
