Cantina Tomaso Gianolio Barbera d'Alba Superiore

Really lovely... Super bright with great pop, sweet and juicy fruits, a little blue, a little bramble.

Cherry and eucalyptus on the nose. On the palate, blackberry, black cherry, and purple fruit with notes of cocoa and savory herbs, with moderate tannins and strong acidity on the medium to long finish. This is excellent, and it's an outstanding value at about $25.

Opened this last night and drinking the remainders that were stored in 187 ml bottles filled to the top. Blackberries and unripe plum aromas, minerals and forest floor earth. Juicy blackberries and unripe plums, herbs, earth, and a hint of baking spices. Excellent acids but rounded. Medium bodied with mild tannins and very well balanced. Delicious.
