"The 2020 Barbera D'Alba Vigna Cuculo is a crowd pleaser of a wine, coming from vineyards just south of the Bricco Boschis. Pouring a deep magenta color, it's plush with notes of ripe plum, candied flowers, and cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, it has good richness with good lift on the finish and is approachable now. Drink 2024-2030."

"Settling into evolved aromas and flavors of mushroom, woodsy underbrush and earthy spices, with its plum and cherry fruit fading, this red reveals a supple texture and fine concentration. Balanced and lively on the dense, woodsy and spicy finish. Drink now through 2027. 400 cases made, 120 cases imported."
