Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Sunday, September 9, 2018 - Cigliuti with Claudia Cigliuti (Neive, Cuneo, Italy): Claudia said that this Barbera is “from three parcels on the hill, two south-east facing on clay, one south-west on chalky soil”. A nose of blackberries, black cherries, plums and black spices. Rich, plush and chocolatey on palate, but with nice slatey minerality. A classical Barbera. “The fruit concentration matches the acidity well” noted Claudia. She said that the Barbera will age but that she prefers drinking this wine within 2-3 years of vintage.
