Fontanafredda Raimonda Barbera d'Alba 2022


The colour is deep ruby-red when young, it tends to garnet-red on ageing. It has a rather intense, characteristic nose which is flowery and fruity at the same time, with nice light overtones of wood, spices and vanilla. The flavour is full, persistent, nicely dry and velvety. The wine is already perfect to drink one years after the vintage. Its character and personality will becompleted by a further period of ageing in the bottle.

This is a wine which deserves to be served with main course dishes. Excellent with full-flavour dishes, meats and cheeses.

91 Points - James Suckling

Attractive nose with aromas of dried orange peel, mild spices, ripe cherries and raspberries. Medium-bodied, racy and bright on the palate, with depth and layers to its fruit. Shows good structure, with firm tannins and wet stone mineral complexity at the end. Sustainable. Drink now.

Succulent and bursting with raspberry and cherry aromas and flavors, this red is spry and vibrant, leaving a mouthwatering impression. The finish echoes ample fruit notes, plus mineral details. Drink now through 2029.
