Bava Libera Barbera d'Asti 1999
Piedmont, ItalyExcellent dark colour with earthy, licorice root aromas and streaks of black cherry. Intense flavours of cherries and licorice with pepper and the ever-present acidity. Solid effort and well balanced in the finish for a barbera. It will improve even more with another year or two in bottle. Fine effort here.Tasted: 26 January 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $19.95 | 750ml | Specialty |
