2003 Parusso Barbera d'Alba Superiore - Drew - 12-07-2012

A truly wonderful wine. Purchased from Last Bottle at $17 per it drinks like more than twice the tariff. Dark in the glass, flavors of dark cherry, blackberry, tar, dark chocolate, mineral and a tad of funk. Really nice medium to full body, well balanced, smooth and lush with good acid and just a touch of oak.
14.5% Alc/vol

Popped another last night to pair with homemade pizza. Fresh, homemade thin crust with a mushroom red sauce, wilted garlicky spinich, sliced chicken and fresh mozzerella. We were very pig like Rolleyes. It's hard to keep my hands off of this wine. It's so food friendly but rich at the same time. Perfectly aged at this point and I really don't see it getting any better but should hold for several more years and I still have a little less than a case left.

I really do love the annual releases of barberaand Dochetto. Lower priced to be sure but i love the character of the wines.
