"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."
