Prunotto

Vivid, ruby red in colour. On the nose, fragrant, with hints of plum and cherry. On the palate it is well structured with soft tannins (typical of the Barbera variety). Both the choice of grapes coming from loose, sandy soil together with modern techniques give this wine a fragrant, vinous character which can be particularly enjoyed when the wine is young. A perfect match for a variety of dishes such as pasta, light cheeses and white meats.

Wine Advocate

Prunotto’s 2007 Barbera d’Asti Fiulot is a pretty, engaging wine at this level. It offers up ripe red fruits, with excellent length and the bright acidity that is the hallmark of the wines of Asti. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011.

Score: 87. —Antonio Galloni, August 2008.

Wine Spectator

A fruity red, with fresh blackberry bush and mineral character. Medium-bodied, with a citrusy finish. Drink now.

Score: 85. —James Suckling, December 15, 2008.
