Starting with this vintage, this wine now shows a vineyard designate on the front label. The 2017 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Fides Vigna Mosconi offers a very specific bouquet that is rooted in dark ripe fruit on the one hand (with blackberry, black cherry, cassis and plum) and distinctive mineral notes on the other hand. It offers dark concentration and smooth intensity in terms of texture.

Henry ★★★★★

The bouquet on this 2017 Barbera is incredibly deep and dark, exactly as described, with a richness that made it perfect for a slow Sunday braise. I was surprised by how smooth the tannins were for such a young vintage—it's drinking beautifully now.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The vineyard designation on the label caught my eye, and the wine itself delivers—that dark fruit bouquet is surprisingly nuanced for a Barbera. Definitely a step up from the standard bottlings.

Claire ★★★★★

The dark, ripe bouquet on this Barbera is incredibly specific and complex, exactly as described. I poured a glass last night and it opened up beautifully after about an hour in the decanter. For the price, this is a fantastic value for a well-aged Piedmont red.
