The 2006 Barbera d’Asti Tabarin is a delicious, entry-level wine. It reveals plenty of fragrant dark fruit with elegant tannins and impressive roundness for a wine from Asti. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011.
Claudio Icardi is based in Castiglione Tinella, one of the prettiest and most remote towns in Piedmont.
