Bruno Giacosa Barbera D'Alba 2006

Leading into christmas I picked up this Italian wine from Alba in the Piedmont. Opened to a lovely array of raisons, cedar, cherries, licorice, herbs and floral notes. On the palate it was very well balanced with soft tannins, mineral and savoury herbs. Finished quite long and dry. Very well suited as a table wine or to drink for itself.
50+4+13+17+7 = 91/100
