The La Spinetta Barbera d'Alba Gallina is rich, powerful with a complex structure. The wine has a strikingly rich bouquet with a beautiful fruit concentration and a breathable freshness. We distinguish plums, mocha, liquorice, cedar and herbs in the nose. On the palate, this beautiful Barbera has a velvety texture and is very soft to the touch. Complex and delicate and warm and freshness go together wonderfully in the La Spinetta Gallina. Like all wine from La Spinetta, this Barbera D'Alba also has a beautiful drinking window (2024+).
