Poderi Colla 2005 Costa Bruna (Barbera d’Alba)

Country: Italy / Piedmont
Variety: Barbera
Winery: Poderi Colla / Costa Bruna

A big, fat, luscious wine with plenty of toasty oak, dark jammy fruit and spices. The palate showed the same lushness; with the fruit front and center with surprising length. A delicious, rather hefty effort short on finesse but long on flavor.
