Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry
This Barbera d'Alba is a juicy, vibrant red marked by dark cherry and plum fruit, a touch of spice, and refreshingly high acidity that keeps it lively at the table. Tannins are soft and light, making it approachable and easy-drinking rather than austere. Punset farms biodynamically in Barbaresco, and their Barbera tends to show a pure, fruit-forward, honest style typical of the estate.
