Bruno Giacosa Barbera d'Alba 2011

Red
Barbera d, Italy
7.0
WineSaint

Dense and almost syrupy, with concentrated blackberry and cassis fruit that coats the palate. Coffee and dark chocolate weave through the core, while bright acidity keeps this powerhouse from feeling heavy. The extraction here is extraordinary. This drinks more like a serious Nebbiolo than typical Barbera.
