Tasting notes

Deep red colour. Pretty nose of earth, coffee, cherries, bitter-almonds, even mineral. Fullbodied and acidic barbera in the mouth. Pure and clean style with lots of fruit. Cherries, coffee, citrus-notes from the acids. Still young, but complex and concentrated. High acidity and medium to low tannins. A typical barbera-like structure. Traditional barbera does not get much better.
