Luigi Spertino Barbera d'Asti Superiore La Mandorla 2018

Colour

Compact ruby red with purple edge.

Bouquet

Wide and seductive olfactory luggage, it opens with drapes of macerated red rose petals and withering violets, insertions of vanilla and cinnamon, pepper and cardamom. Tones of prune and blueberries in jam follow perceptions of eucalyptus and mint. Undergrowth stains with almond breaths anticipate refined cassis leaf and glaze. Mineral memories.

Flavour

Powerful and elegant on the palate, fascinating taste sensation given by an excellent acid-sapid balance with dense and noble tannins. Rich and articulated persistence.
