Apogee of Barbera - even in the 2013 vintage - ripe but textured

#Barbera that makes many Barolos look bad. This '13 is great now, but I'm sure it will be drinking even better in a few years.

Vigna Francia. Deep purple on the core, with hint of red ruby on the rim. Complex aromas consists of hint of oxidized cherry, leather, tabacco, flowers and fresh red plum as well. Med body, med p acid, med p intensity, med tannin, med p finish, soft and silky texture. Acid kick on the first palate but hint of tabaccoish structure follows after that. Recommend to age minimum two years in the bottle, drink in 10 years.
