Batasiolo Barbera d'Alba 2000

Piedmont, ItalyMade from the barbera grape this red opens with black licorice and earthy spicy aromas. It splashes across the palate with good acidity and a sense of vibrancy but generally it's a soft sipper. Less fruit and an earthier, spicy flavour mark the 2000 edition.Tasted: 01 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
