The 2022 Barbera d'Asti Battaglione shows an inky dark appearance with bold fruit flavors of blackberry and baked plum. Fruit comes from a site with reddish clay soils and full sunlight from southern exposures. This wine is all about primary intensity and there's no beating around the bush. It shows a soft and opulent texture thanks to four months in neutral oak and delivers a lot of upfront personality. It's an easy-drinking and certainly very charming wine. -ML
A plush, generous red, offering plum, blackberry and vanilla aromas and flavors, with a hint of violet. The smooth texture picks up a light grain on the long finish. Drink now through 2028. - B.S.
Notes of crushed red and blue berries with orange peel, cocoa and red flowers. A juicy and vibrant barbera with ripe but crunchy dark fruit and polished texture. Medium-bodied. Racy and flavorful finish. Drink now. JS
