2021 Barbera d'Alba, Vigna Francia, Giacomo Conterno
This is very open with juicy fruit and orange peel undertones. Succulent. Full and layered. Yummy fruit. Drink now. ~ (93) James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 6-23-2023
The 2021 Barbera Cascina Francia was tasted from barrel and pours a rich youthful ruby/purple color. Mineral-tinged with graphite, black raspberry, and violets, it is medium-bodied on the palate, with refined tannic structure, great freshness, and a red plum and more violet perfume. Gorgeous and pure, warmth and freshness at the same time, this is as good as it gets for Barbera. Drink 2024-2040. ~ (96) Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com 5-4-2023
