Germano’s 2008 Barbera d’Alba is a very pretty, refined offering. Made in a mid-weight style, this ethereal Barbera floats on the palate, revealing sensations of silky, perfumed fruit that recall Pinot Noir. The wine possesses lovely balance and a delicate personality. Ideally it is best enjoyed on the young side, while the fruit is vibrant. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2013.

The 2007 Barbera d’Alba is a soft-textured vinous offering perfect for casual drinking over the near-term. The wine offers attractive plumpness in its ripe red fruit. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2010. What a joy it is to taste these wines from Sergio Germano, a young producer, who like many growers, made the finest Barolos of his career in 2004. Importers: Petit Pois, Moorestown, NJ; tel.
