Giorgio Pelissero Barbera d'Alba Piani 2016

Barbera d, Italy

WineSaint
Vibrant acidity cuts through concentrated dark fruit with surgical precision. Black cherry and violet aromatics translate to a palate that balances power with restraint. The structure shows remarkable transparency for Barbera's typically dense character, letting mineral and herb notes shine through clearly. Built for food pairing rather than extended aging, though its backbone will carry it through 2024.
