Tasting Notes

Colour:

A classic, mouthwatering barbera with a deep, bright ruby-red colour with

Aroma:

A rich concentrated nose of cherry and berry aromas.

Flavours:

Dense, crisp and supple with plum, cherry and strawberry flavours. The palate is generous and full-bodied with a long and enticing finish.

Pairings:

In summer, a luxurious BBQ wine to serve with grilled lamb or juicy pork chops. In winter, think comfort food such as spare ribs and roasted potatoes. By a cosy fire.

Reviews:

“The 2007 Barbera d’Asti La Villa reveals a relatively easygoing, feminine expression of this grape in its super-ripe red fruits, flowers and spices. The wine shows good focus as well as balance in an engaging style. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012. Score: 88” Antonio Galloni, www.erobertparker.com, Aug. 2009
