The 2007 Barbera d’Alba Fornaci is an elegant, mid-weight red laced with silky red fruit and sweet French oak. The Fornaci is a nicely balanced, supple wine, but it doesn’t quite capture the exuberance and sheer raciness that is typical of so many wines in this vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2013.
