From vintner Luigi Scavino, the Azelia 2016 Barbera d'Alba Punta offers inky dark color saturation with a broad and lasting aromatic profile. The bouquet is made mostly of black fruit aromas, with a few highlights of red cherry or cassis. However, the wine's texture is a weave of essentially plum, blackberry and prune. There is spice, tobacco and leather at the back, but these play background roles. What this wine also has is a tight, linear mouthfeel driven by the grape's natural freshness. Fruit comes from Castiglione Falletto from a vineyard named Punta (or "point" in English) because it is located at the pointy top of a hill. Some 6,700 bottles were produced.

The fruit is on the dark side, here—black cherry and blackberry—accented by elements of licorice, earth and iron. Sleek and firm, shows fine balance, delineation and a long finish. Drink now through 2024. 550 cases made, 175 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbera d'Alba Select to Add
