The 2022 Cascina Penna-Currado 'Carra' Barbera d'Alba is produced in the Piedmont region of Northern Italy, specifically from vineyards in the San Sebastiano area of the Monforte d'Alba municipality. It offers a complex taste profile with rich aromas of ripe black and red fruits, such as plums and cherries, complemented by notes of lavender, brown spice, and iron. The wine is medium to full-bodied with a soft mouthfeel, characterized by vibrant, mouthwatering acidity and fine, velvety tannins. The love of Barbera shines through in the glass. If you’re looking for an example of just what Barbera is capable, Elena & Luca’s 1st release shows just that. The wisdom of decades of experience at the helm of Vietti shines. It has been rated a 94 by Robert Parker
