The 2006 Barbera d’Alba Marun is a pretty, understated red laced with dark cherries, menthol, violets and flowers, all of which come together in a graceful and beautifully balanced style. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012.
These new releases from Correggia are impressive for their consistency, drinkability and varietal trueness. Even better, a number of the wines are terrific values as well.
