Barbera D'Alba Doc Tulin Pelissero 2021

The 2021 Barbera d’Alba Tulin from Pelissero is a bold, sophisticated expression of Barbera, sourced from the low-yielding Tulin vineyard in Treiso. Deep purple-red with violet hues, it opens with focused aromas of black cherry, mulberry, licorice, and Mediterranean herbs, layered with tobacco and graphite. Aged 18 months in French barriques, the palate is powerful yet refined—ripe acidity, silky tannins, and dense fruit balanced by spice and minerality. This is not a casual Barbera; it demands attention and rewards it with depth, clarity, and a long, savory finish.
