Terre del Barolo 2015 – Barbera d’Alba 

The nose is fruity and racy. It reveals notes of blackberry, crushed raspberry, small crushed wild black berries and small notes of gray pepper, violet associated with touches of fleshy strawberry, fleshy blueberry as well as hints of vanilla, tobacco and caramelization. The mouth is fruity, well-balanced and offers a good definition, a beautiful juiciness, fleshiness as well as gourmandise. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of juicy blueberry, juicy / fleshy raspberry and small notes of crushed/ripe red berries associated with a touch of fleshy strawberry as well as hints of vanilla, toasted, sweet spices, a very discreet hint of licorice (in the background) and an imperceptible hint of almond (in the background). Tannins are fine, well-built and very discreetly firm. Juicy, fleshy and gourmand.
