SAQ essential!
Take a pine forest, lay it on some pavement and bake it for a while, add some sweet fruit, some leather and tannic elements and slap a $12.00 price on it and you have an Italian fave in our house. A DOCG wine, it contains a minimum of 85% Barbera grapes and as a superiore it has achieved a min. 12.5% ABV (13% in this case) and was aged for over a year, 6 months of which was in Oak or Chestnut casks. I am going to go out on a limb to say that this was aged in chestnut.
I read that the Superiore can be aged for 10-20 years. Hard to do in this house...
