Barbera d’Asti 2005 in the Wine Spectator

Domenico Valentino — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 22:17:34 +0000

Castello di Montegrosso’s Barbera d’Asti is reviewed in the February edition of the Wine Spectator. WS‘s Senior Editor and Tasting Director Bruce Sanderson has awarded the 2005 vintage a hefty 91 points, describing the wine as “amazingly fresh and concentrated… full of sweet plum, blackberry and spice flavors.” For Castello di Montegrosso winemaker Graziano Motta, whose family has been making wine on the site since the 18th century, it’s a delightful international recognition. Motta’s Barbera d’Asti, known as Ruleja after the vineyard site, is vinified without temperature-control in fiberglass tanks, and after spending eight months in barriques is aged for up to six years in Slavonian oak casks.
