The 2016 Barbera d'Alba Superiore is a precise and balanced wine that applies a very orderly approach to a grape that can often show an untamed or wild side. In fact, this wine flaunts a level of pedigree that does not go unnoticed to those in the know about Barbera. This expression has it all under control, and the wine comports itself in a soothing manner that will pair well with hearty winter dishes. Fire up the grill now, or stick it in the cave and take your chances.

The 2015 Barbera d'Alba Superiore is a profound expression of this native grape from a perfectly suited vintage. All the stars have aligned correctly to produce this gorgeous expression. Fruit is sourced from old vines (the average age is 63) and yields are extremely low. It takes two or three vines to make a single bottle of wine. The bouquet is complex and dark with rich black fruit, tar, smoke and spice. The mouthfeel is equally rich and enduring. This beautiful Barbera should continue a steady evolution over the next decade in the bottle.
