Starting with its bright ruby color to its long-lasting finish, this is a classic Barbera. Aromas of bright tart cherries and wild raspberries mixed with fresh herbs and forest floor. The palate is electric with vibrant acidity, amazing texture and wild fresh plums mixed with deep earthy notes.

A supple, even creamy texture embraces the blackberry, plum and leather flavors in this concentrated red. Firms up, with well-meshed tannins flexing on the finish. Drink now through 2027. 830 cases made, 250 cases imported.
Vinous

The 2020 Barbera d'Alba Bricco dei Merli is plump and juicy, with complicating notes of dried flowers, herbs and cedar that add nuance. There's good fruit depth, to be sure, but the aromatics are suggestive of a style that is more savory rather than fruit-driven.
