Pelissero Barbera d'Alba "Tulin" 2021 [AG 93]

Antonio Galloni 93 points.

CHARACTERISTICS:

Rich and complex wine produced using vines grafted in 2004 on a surface of around 1,5 hectares. The choice of little productive clones, the use of a little vigorous rootstock as the Rupestris du Lot and the wonderful climatic position of the Tulin vineyard allowed us to reach quickly an unexpected result.

TECHNICAL NOTES:

Accurate selection in vineyard with double cluster thinning (green harvest) and following hand harvesting. Further selection in cellar before the destemming and crushing. Fermentation with maceration for about 15 days. Ageing 2 years in wooden barrels and 1 year in bottle.

TASTING SHEET:

Rich and complex wine in which the great characteristics of Barbera are exalted by the perfect union between variety and soil. The colour is intense and brilliant ruby red almost bluish violet with a great viscosity. To the nose it has the classical notes of stewed fruit, raspberry, red blueberry and the sweet airy vein that release the trivalent alcohols.
