Costa di Bussia | Barbera d'Alba DOC
Red wine | Italy | 2023
The color is ruby ??red without being really deep. The fruit is abundantly present (wild strawberries and plums) in combination with spicy notes. We notice soft tannins with a lot of freshness and an attractive length. It is a wine that gives the best of itself after years of bottle aging.
