Croere Barbera d'Asti 1999

Piedmont, ItalyToasty, spicy clove, vanilla and saddle leather saturate the nose. Spicy oaky vanilla flavours dominate the palate and obscure the barbera fruit. New style that reminds us more of Bordeaux than Barbera. The vanilla and spice will appeal to many palates just the same. Tasted: 26 January 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
