Vietti Barbera d' Alba 18

This is the most accessible of the five expressions of Barbera (from both Alba and Asti) made by Vietti. The 2018 Barbera d'Alba Tre Vigne opens to dark cherry and blackberry with good textural richness at the back. There is a lot of fruit fiber and support here to counter the abundant blackberry and cherry flavors that are so characteristic of this grape.
