Note di degustazione
A plush, flamboyant wine, the 2015 Barbera d'Alba Bricco dei Merli is super-expressive today. Dark cherry, raspberry jam, spice and floral notes are all generous in a fleshy, open-knit Barbera that captures all of the natural richness of the year.

A heady Barbera with a wealth of blueberry essence and balsamic character as well as kirsch and dried ivy. Full body, extremely round tannins, high acidity and a dense but uplifted finish. Drink now.
This was a terrific vintage for Barbera. The 2015 Barbera d'Alba Bricco dei Merli shows inky density and succulent softness. The grapes have happily absorbed the warm sunshine from the long growing season. The wine was aged in botte grande to maintain the brightness of the fruit and to prevent the wine from becoming too heavy. It shows a pretty level of fresh acidity and it also offers distinct mineral tones that come as a pleasant surprise. Aromas of crushed flint and campfire ash are followed by cola and balsam herb. This wine is distinguished by its savory flavors and the softness of its texture.
