Poderi Aldo Conterno Conca Tre Pile Barbera d’Alba 2022

A restrained barbera with aromas of citrus, red currants, cinnamon, red cherries and touches of smoke, licorice and graphite. Full-bodied with supple fruit, a dense palate, velvety tannins and crisp, precise acidity. Warming yet balanced chocolaty finish. Drink or hold. Score – 94. (jamessuckling.com, May 16, 2025)
