Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2022

Light purple in color with light intensity.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing raspberries, strawberries, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth and tobacco leaf.

Nice length on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This Barbera d'Alba is spicy and showing good structure. Fruitier on the palate than on the nose.

Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

100% Barbera grapes were aged for 12 months in large oak barrels.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$40.

Pietra Marina Etna Bianco Superiore Carricante 2019

Delectable Wine
9.5

The 2019 Etna Bianco Superiore Pietra Marina captivates. It’s perfumed and floral, with enriching notes of almond paste and confectionery spice that perfectly accentuate a smoky core of white peaches. There’s more lift on the palate, but it's a little backward, possessing wiry textures and an intense mineral core that adds depth to its citrus-inflected orchard fruits. Nervous acidity forces the mouth to water and maintains a dazzling freshness as inner florals resonate and a sour lime concentration settles in. The 2019 is just an infant today, compact yet complex, balanced and loaded with character. It will be a gorgeous Etna Bianco to follow over the next decade or more. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2024)
