Chiarlo’s major Barbera property is half of a very large estate which he divided with Piero Antinori. It is in an exceptional spot in Agliano d’Asti, something which is easily perceptible in the 2000 Barbera d’Asti La Court. Deep ruby and with very ripe plum and berry fruit and an important spiciness from the oak, it is lush, sweet, very smooth and caressing on the palate, but deep and with an important volume and length as well. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2010.Importer: Kobrand Corp., New York, NY; tel. (212) 490-9300

This is a full-blown barriqued version of Barbera, with powerful aromas of cedar and vanilla making a clear statement. On the palate, there’s plenty of tart cherry fruit, wearing a heavy coat of new French oak. The overall result is pleasing, ending with easy suppleness. ——J.C.(11/15/2004)—— 88
