Fontanafredda Briccotondo Barbera 2013

Piedmont, ItalyAlways consistent, always a steal, this barbera is from one of the great Piedmont producers, ideally situated in the heart of the Langhe. An intense nose of dried cherry, wild raspberry, black plums and leather. The juicy, mouthfilling palate rolls with sweet wild herbs, red and black cherry, fragrant black currant, leather and sweet tobacco. A backbone of stony minerality and dark floral spice weaves along ripe, fine tannins, finishing fresh and ready for mushroom risotto or boar ragu.Tasted: 11 July 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
