"An approachably priced release of about 25,000 bottles, the Pelassa 2019 Barbera d'Alba Superiore San Pancrazio shows a pretty and elegant side to this versatile and food-friendly red grape from Piedmont. The wine opens to notes of wild berry, sour cherry and plum. Those tangy fruit notes are followed by fresh acidity and a lightweight style that gives this wine classic lines and an immediate appeal." The Wine Advocate, 91 Points
"Plenty of sweet-berry and citrus aromas and flavors. Medium-to full-bodied with bright acidity and a delicious, creamy finish. Tangy at the end. Drink now." James Suckling, 91 Points
