Tasting notes
The 2015 Barbaresco Gallina reveals a slightly spicier or more balsamic character, with cherry cola, rosemary essence and dried garden mint. With fruit from Neive, the Gallina sports broad shoulders and carries extra fruit weight and structural heft. The finish is silky and polished with medium-long length. Only 2,862 bottles exist.

The 2015 Barbaresco Gallina is a very pretty, classic Barbaresco from this Neive site. Rose petal, spice, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco, mint, anise and orange zest all grace this delicious, wonderfully inviting Barbaresco. Soft, silky and impeccable in its balance, the 2015 can be enjoyed with minimal cellaring.
