Tasting Notes
The Bosio Passato Barbera opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe black cherry, dried plum, and a hint of sun-dried tomato that reflects its 'passato' — a style where grapes are partially dried to concentrate flavors. On the palate, it delivers rich, jammy fruit with velvety tannins, a touch of dark chocolate, and warming spice that speaks to the Piedmontese terroir. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of dried fig and a characteristic Barbera brightness that lifts the wine beautifully.
