Product Description
The Barbera d'Alba is a beautifully pointed, focused wine. Dark raspberries, flowers, minerals and smoke are woven together in a fabric of notable verve. The mid-weight, vibrant style is a bit of a departure from some of the bigger, lusher Barberas Sandrone has made in previous years, but I find the clean, driven personality of the wine highly attractive, not to mention incredibly food friendly.

Product details
Technical datas
This wine took us back to the seventies with a very rainy spring and summer which made the management of the vineyards decidely difficult. Only thanks to the generous months of August, September and October were the grapes able to complete the ripening process in the best manner. The 2008 vintage undoubtedly rewarded the best zones and vineyard sites, and particularly those who invested in meticulous and timely vineyard management.
