The 2007 Barbera d’Alba Costa Bruna is an attractive, mid-weight wine laced with fragrant dark fruit and sweet toasted oak on a silky frame. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012. Grace, elegance and understatement are the hallmarks of the wines of Poderi Colla. These are never the biggest or flashiest wines, but they are always among the most enjoyable for their sheer drinkability. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900
