The Domenico Clerico 2021 Barbera d'Alba Trevigne offers extra fruit weight with blackberry, dark plum and spice. Winemaker Oscar Arrivabene says this is a very good year for Barbera. The wine feels lavish and soft over the palate, to pair with cheese-filled pasta. A high 15% alcohol content will help to break through the fat in that dish. Some 15,000 bottles were made.

Sleek and saturated with black cherry, plum and boysenberry flavors, this red stays fresh and focused. Firms up nicely as this crosses the finish line, where a spice element lingers. Drink now through 2028. 1,750 cases made, 750 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbera d'Alba Select to Add
