Wowwowwow...this is probably one of the best Barberas I have tasted so far. This is clearly a modern styled wine...(Ferdinando is inspired by Voerzio's winemaking approach - among other stuff the clusters are cut by about 2/3).
Soft notes of chocolate and coconut. The taste is like a brooding giant :) . Lots of fruit, but dark and dense. This is a powerhouse with soft edges.

Renato Corino, Barbera d'Alba 2004 Vigna Pozzo
From the top Barbera vineyard Pozzo, Renato Corino makes this supercharged Barbera. A little less expressive than its 2003 counterpart, it is still a great Barbera made in a modern stile. The wine is aged for 18 months in barriques (50% new).
In the nose its has soft, round tones and the taste is dry with a lot of red fruit.
