Just had a couple glasses and then finished it Saturday night with Jill making salmon with fresh herbs. Didn't pump the bottle - left it in the decanter. It doesn't need that much air - next time store it in the bottle and pump it out. |

11/18/2016 - td1836 Likes this wine: 90 pointsBeckett Tasting Group - Nov 2016: Light red/purple in color, this is a most feminine wine of the night. Bing cherry, spice, and sweet aromas. Getting strawberry, cherry, and some juicy acidity. This has a smooth finish and is an easy drinking wine. |

10/29/2014 - gf2182 Likes this wine: 87 pointsAgree with the comment on brett funk... didn't completely blow off, but didn't bother me (although mrs couldn't get by it); opens up quickly from initial bright and slightly tart to a nice earthy barbera which complemented my pizza quite nicely. |

5/23/2016 - rustyRudy Likes this wine: 90 pointsFresh, juicy, very little tannin, a little bit of smoke on the nose, enough acidity to hold up to ravioli in red sauce , enough ripe cherry flavors to drink well by itself. Easy to drink. Probably not a wine for holding on to. |

10/21/2012 - TannicBeast wrote: 89 pointsThe color is a bricky ruby, closer to garnet; medium plus intensity. The nose is clean, medium plus to pronounced in intensity, with mostly black berries and black cherries. The nose is developing. The palate is dry, with medium plus acidity, medium alcohol at 13.5% and medium plus tannins. The body and flavor intensity are medium plus, with a nice mediumn plus finish. This wine is surprisingly youthful given its age and apperance. The nose is just captiviating. Drinkeable now, but this is likely to improve with several more years of cellaring. More of a food wine than a cocktail wine. A good value. |

9/15/2018 - lightning wrote: 88 pointsDark ruby, almost opaque core. Tangy, slightly funky nose, a compote of ripe strawberries and yeast. Medium bodied, similar flavours as the nose, balanced acid, some raspy tannins on the midpalate, and considerable length. Some spritz on opening. Fruits are ripe and punchy. Interesting and quite different to most Barbera d'Alba I've had. |

1/21/2019 - ProperClaret Likes this wine: NRFull disclosure: This was my first barbera, so I have no real perspective to judge it against its peers. But it was deightful, and I'm saddened that my four bottles are now gone. |

Forest and Portobello are present on the end. Typical for the Barbera expression, but extremely good for the quality and price. |
