"The 2022 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Serraboella is plump, juicy and super-expressive. A rush of dark cherry, plum, mocha, rose petals and licorice caresses the palate. Pretty floral notes lift the finish, adding brightness and persistence. This lush yet impeccably balanced Barbera is a total delight. The 2022 spent 18 months in a mix of cask and 500-liter barrels."

"A dense, robust style, this red delivers plum, tamarind, earth and chocolate flavors. There's lively acidity, along with chunky tannins for support. Drink now through 2030. 800 cases made, 270 cases imported."

"A rich magenta/purple color, the 2021 Barbera D'Alba Vigna Serraboella is richly concentrated with aromas of ripe plum, mocha, lavender, candied lavender, and a nice lift of spice. Its palate is fresh and velvety in texture, with ripe tannins, fantastic length, and a great finish. It has some potential to age over the next several years, but it's incredibly delicious with a kiss of sweet fruit to drink now."

"The 2021 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Serraboella is a rich, sumptuous wine. Succulent dark red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal, spice and mocha are all beautifully amplified. The aromatics are a bit high-toned, but there is enough fruit to balance things out. The 2021 spent 18 months in tonneaux and cask."
