2023 GIANFRANCO ALESSANDRIA BARBERA D'ALBA
"The Gianfranco Alessandria 2020 Barbera d'Alba hits the mark in a hot vintage. This expression of Barbera is fleshed out and ripe with baked cherry, black plum and lots of dark primary fruit. A short, eight-day maceration in steel is followed by brief aging in steel. You get lots of concentrated fruit." Monica Larner Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 90 points (2020 vintage) Drink 2024+

The Gianfranco Alessandria 2023 Barbera d'Alba opens to medium-dark concentration with a purplish color. The dark fruit flavors show medium intensity in this vintage and perhaps simpler lines altogether. This is aged in stainless steel only. The 2023 vintage lacks some of the bold focus that you get in other years. This is a 16,000-bottle release.
