1998 Giuseppe Contratto Barbera d'Asti Solus Ad (Italy, Piedmont, Asti, Barbera d'Asti) 1/31/2010jcvalenti91

Delightful and still very integrated despite age. Garnet hue with little edge seperation. Nose is a bit pinched, showing a bit of spice and plum. Very well structured on first taste, with noticeable yet pleasant acidity, and a bit of tannins for back end structure. Overall, very enjoyable and bright, and an excellent complement to any traditional Italian dish. (2675 views)

1998 Giuseppe Contratto Barbera d'Asti Solus Ad (Italy, Piedmont, Asti, Barbera d'Asti) 8/5/2008Cosmo3

Excellent and pure, a great expression of this grape and region. Showing age around the edges with some orange/brown hues but the color is very concentrated and dark with integration of smoke, oak, earth, light plums and spices from start to finish. Still a good deal of structure at 10 years old. (2264 views)
