An Ontario based consignor who has been collecting wine with her husband for over 30 years. They have an appreciation of the intricacies of the winemaking process and have travelled to many vineyards throughout the USA and Europe. When opening a bottle, they enjoy sharing the story of the wine and took great care to create their custom built wine cellar to house their unique collection. Their hope is to share these bottles with other avid wine collectors.
The tasting note for 2005 La Spinetta Gallina Barbera d'Alba DOC is from Robert Parker and the score is 90 - The estate’s 2005 Barbera d’Alba Gallina reveals a dark, purplish color. It is a sweet, well-delineated wine with layers of ripe dark fruit, violets minerals, smoke, plums and asphalt. In 2005 the Gallina is a more slender, smaller-scaled wine than is normally the case. Of (Giorgio) Rivetti’s top Barberas I usually prefer the Bionzo, but in 2005 it is the Gallina which offers greater complexity and harmony.
