The 2008 Barbera d'Asti L'Avvocata shows excellent balance in what is proving to be a challenging harvest in Piedmont. Dried cherries, flowers and tobacco are some of the nuances to be found in this mid-weight, accessible Barbera. The cask-aged L’Avvocata is Coppo’s entry-level Barbera. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2013.
