Finca La Colonia, Barbera - I was really taken with the purity of fruit in this wine. No oak influences to obscure the natural flavours of the Barbera grape. This medium-bodied wine has lovely fresh acidity with very rich juicy smooth flavours. In 1875, Edmund Norton first planted vines in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo district high in the Andean foothills. At 900-1100 meters, the altitude moderates the temperature, causing an extended ripening season, and also exposes the vines to more ultraviolet light, which encourages colour and tannin development. The results are obvious for all to see, vibrant wines packed with flavour, good acidity, well-structured and amazingly food friendly. The Finca La Colonia range of wines are sourced from young vines, with no oak to obscure their immediate, accessible fruit. |
