2006 Barbera d'Asti Bricco dell'Uccellone, Braida,Rochetta Tanaro, Piedmont
On the nose, this is refined and elegant, with notes of perfumed red berry fruit and spice, as well as a touch of leather and toasted oak. The palate is soft and opulent, with fine, well-integrated tannins and rounded morello cherry fruit. This is supremely well balanced and very fine.
