La Spinetta Barbera d'Asti Superiore 'Bionzo' 2005
La Spinetta Barbera d'Asti Superiore 'Bionzo' 2005 "Deep ruby color. Pungent aromas of blackberry and bitter chocolate. Sappy black fruit and integrated oak flavors sharply framed by penetrating acidity. This boasts lovely inner-mouth aromatic character and mineral energy from the limestone-rich soil. Finishes with substantial tongue-dusting tannins. The crop level was just 18 hectoliters per hectare, according to Rivetti. Drink this now with full-flavored meat or hold it for five years." - 91/100 Stephen Tanzer "Offers loads of crushed berry, with undertones of vanilla and green tea. Full-bodied, with big, round tannins and plenty of fruit. Balanced and luscious." - 90/100 Wine Spectator
