Bruno Giacosa Barbera d'Alba Falletto 2006

A masterful Barbera, deep and brooding with a complexity not often encountered in this workhorse grape of Piemonte. Full of flavors of dark fruits and spices, this Barbera has more in common with various Super-Tuscan wines than what one normally expects from Barbera. Aged for one year longer in oak than Giacosa's regular bottling.

Characterized by a distinctive aroma or tar and blackberry. A full-body wine with velvety tannins.

Giacomo Conterno Barbera Cascina Francia 2007

Although many contemporary productions of Barbera deliver a high level of fruit extraction and evidence significant oak influence, Conterno’s bottlings eschew such modern extremities. The ’04 exhibits impeccable balance and arguably delivers a benchmark performance. It delivers Barbera’s trademark acidity, a feature that renders it the classic companion to pizza.
