Ricossa Antica Casa Barbera d'Asti 2009

Piedmont, ItalyThis wine seems to get better every year. The nose is fresh and bright with vibrant red plums, liquorice, meat and pepper/floral highlights. The entry is soft and the textures rich and dense with pleasant acidity. Love the juicy, black cherry fruit with bits of almond and resin and ripe kirsch flavours. Modern clean and fun to drink. Good value.Tasted: 20 September 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
