“The 2011 Barbera d’Alba Gisep delivers a new level of intensity and elegance. This is a carefully crafted expression of the grape that pits fresh fruit aromas against savory tones of dark leather and tobacco. There’s also a good dose of chocolaty richness or Maraschino cherry to soften the grape’s natural freshness. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2020. 90 points”
