Matteo Correggia Barbera d'Alba 2016
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, ItalyThis Barbera d'Alba is on point, if a bit simple. It's led by dark cherry with some gentle spice. There's a slight oxidative note, too, though consider this does have more age than most Barberas you'll find on the market now. Medium-bodied, firm tannins carry the palate, with some tartness to the finish. The right tomato-based pasta should bring it all together.Tasted: 01 November 2020Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:BC | $33.00 | 750ml | estimated retail in select private wine shops |
