Prunotto Barbera Barbera d'Alba Pian Romualdo 2011
Winemaker's Notes:
Prunotto Barbera D'Alba Pian Romualdo 2011 is 100% Barbera aged for 12 months in a combination of oak barrels and barriques with an additional 4 months of aging in bottle before release. This Piedmont red offers harmonious blackberry and spice character with full body and a long finish. Pairs well with roast meat and game dishes and aged cheeses.
Editorial Reviews for Prunotto Barbera Barbera d'Alba Pian Romualdo
An initial whack of wood hits the nose, just too oaky and raw. Once you get past that there is a honeycomb like floralish aroma here, dominated by violets layered atop black currant, and jammy black fruit on the nose with hint of fresh leather and shoe polish. On the palate the fruit does shine through, framed by sweet toasty oak flavors, tart black plum and black berry pop on the palate and while this is arguably better than the standard version it's less fun to drink. The finish is a bit short, rather rich with fruit but the sweetness of the wood pops quickly then fades leaving light fruit and acid to dissipate fairly quickly. 87pts
