Very bright with a purple edge to the color. Lots of dark cherries, violet and licorice that extend to a fleshy, medium-bodied palate. I love the crunch and the succulence here. An excellent Barbera d’Alba that can be enjoyed in the next five years. Drink or hold.

Screwcap. Massolino’s two hectares of Guyot-trained vines in a limestone-rich Serralunga vineyard are now complemented by Barbera from Monforte d’Alba. The 2022 fermented for 10 to 12 days in stainless steel and cement tanks and raised in the same vessels briefly before being bottled and released.
