The 2009 Barbera d’Alba Fides is another attractive wine. Juicy plums, dark red berries, flowers, spices and French oak all come together in this juicy Barbera. The 2009 is a little more open and generous than the 2010. Accordingly, it is best enjoyed over the next few years. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2015.
