The Barbera vines used to make the 2013 Langhe Larigi were planted as early as 1948. The 2013 vintage showed a cold spring and a hot summer. As a result, the wine delivers a dark color profile and rich fruit characteristics. This Barbera is aged in oak for 18 months for extra richness. Black fruit, blackberry preserves, spice, tar and cola are part of the package. Balanced acidity serves to cut through some of the boldness of the fruit.

Rich yet focused, with intensity to the black cherry, plum and spice flavors. Floral and mineral elements add depth, while the oak treatment presents a layer of fine tannins as this red lingers. Barbera. Drink now through 2024. 416 cases made.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Langhe Select to Add
