Mauro Molino Barbera D'Alba

 


Mauro Molino is one of the stalwart wineries of the La Morra subregion of Piedmont. I described the Rosso in the last post as a pizza wine. Well, Barbera goes pretty well with pizza, too.

This 2021 Mauro Molino Barbera d'Alba tastes of fresh red cherry, getting darker down the palate. There is a bit of underbrush, too. This is a medium-bodied wine with quite good intensity. The acidity is very high and remains a dominant feature of the finish.

This is a very lively wine. The acidity is perhaps a bit much.

Score: 91/+
