Luigi Spertino Barbera d'Asti DOCG 2018 Rose des Riceys and quite linear and focusedA rich and expressive Barbera showing both depth and freshness. The nose opens with ripe cherry, plum, and subtle balsamic notes, layered with hints of cocoa, spice, and dried flowers. On the palate, it is vibrant and medium to full bodied, with Barberas signature acidity bringing lift to the dark fruit core. A touch of oak adds texture and warmth, leading to a long, polished finish with savory and lightly mineral undertones.
