Massolino Barbera d'Alba 2021 750ml

92 Points James Suckling | Very bright with a purple edge to the color. Lots of dark cherries, violet and licorice that extend to a fleshy, medium-bodied palate. I love the crunch and the succulence here. An excellent Barbera d’Alba that can be enjoyed in the next five years. Drink or hold. (2021).

91 Points Wine Enthusiast | This is a fun and exciting wine with deep red fruit of cherry and raspberry. The fruits are complimented by violets and rhubarb with loads of sweet and savory spices. The palate is bright and pops with tart “Frutti di Bosco” (translated to wild fruits of the forest) with fine tannins and good structure. Vineyard Brands.

90 Points Wine Spectator | A linear, compact red marked by a mix of violet, blackberry and boysenberry aromas and flavors. Bolstered by vivid acidity, this glides to a long, intense aftertaste. 

Deep purplish, almost impenetrable red. Elegant, sweet, and tempting, the intense and fruity notes characteristic of Barbera emerge. Vinous, fresh, and well-balanced. An easy to drink wine which is tasty and rich without being excessively heavy.

Perfect with Langhe cuisine and very tasty dishes in general. Excellent with pasts, rice, and soup, braised or grilled red meats, and medium mature cheeses. It is also perfect for aperitifs, with appetizers and sliced meats. Winemaker Description.
