2001 Barbera d'Asti Bricco della Bigotta

The intensity level moves up in the 2001 Barbera d’Asti Bricco della Bigotta, matched only by the 1989 in the history of the firm. A deep, blackish ruby/purple, its super-rich nose of plum jam, truffles, minerals, and scorched earth and its long, focused, and powerful flavors of plum, blueberry, vanilla, and caramel show just how ripe the fruit of this vintage was and how well it was fermented and aged.
