Alfonso Boeri 2007 Porlapà (Barbera d’Asti Superiore)

Country: Italy / Porlapà
Variety: Barbera Piedmont
Winery: Alfonso Boeri / Barbera d’Asti Superiore

The wine opens with a thick, black and dense appearance and segues to raw aromas of blackberry, cherry, tobacco, spice and natural rubber. There’s a vinous, chewy quality here that needs more time in the bottle to unwind.
