The Conterno Fantino 2020 Barbera d'Alba Vignota is extra generous and rich in this hot vintage, with lots of syrupy cherry fruit and blackberry confit. This wine offers a classic interpretation of Barbera, a native grape of Northern Italy that loves heat and sunshine. It thrives in limestone and marl soils in this case. Vignota (with precisely 23,432 bottles on the market) is soft and velvety in texture, with some sweet fruit on the close.

The 2020 Barbera d'Alba Vignota is a blend taken from five parcels. Silky and beautifully perfumed, the 2020 is absolutely gorgeous. Crushed raspberry, rose petal and sweet spice are all laced together. This is the most elegant Barbera I have tasted from Conterno-Fantino.
