Truffle Hunter Leda Barbera Appassimento DOC Piemonte, 2021

While the Appassimento technique of concentrating the colours, aromas and flavours by drying of grapes is an ancient practice, there is a renewed buzz about these well-heeled wines. An intriguing bouquet of smoky plum and cherry is followed by a palate rich with flavours of strawberry, cherry and raspberry. A subtle hint of smokiness adds to the wine’s charisma.
