At best this is a table wine. Too acidic and tangy which masked the flavors of the grapes.

Classic Barbera notes of plums and dark cherries, soft tannins and spice. Savoury with pleasing acidity and soft ruffled tannins. As it warmed in the glass the sweetness of the fruit and the weight of alcohol became more apparent. The finish was acceptable and the wine was a perfect accompaniment to my slow cooked beef.

Very enjoyable summer wine. Rich yellow color. Slight petrol aroma. Overripe peach and fruit flavors but a real nice balance and acidity. Very enjoyable.

From a 375ml bottle. Lime on the nose. Medium bodied, dry, crisp, showing lime, subtle green apples and a tiny herbal aspect with a slightly oily texture and very firm acidity. Simply delicious.

Vin Chicago Pickup Party & Tasting (Bobak's Signature Events): Retailer tasting. Decidedly herbaceous bouquet with mint and basil elements with orchard fruit underneath. Dried peach with bright acidity.

Way too heavy handed when the winemakers used sulfur. Maybe I can turn this into a sangria? I'll probably just pour it out. Sigh.

Just fine, enough to it with pleasant blend of lemon, citrus, light stone fruit, hints of melon, balanced. Not finding any issue with acidity others mention, though I am inclined to enjoy a bit of edge there.

Medium bodied wine with notes of citrus/lemon, pears & stone fruit. Nice sweetness level with a long finish. Slight honey and acidity noted. Would give this wine a 3.9-4.0/5 star rating.

Pale yellow straw in the glass. On the nose notes of white flowers are dominant with a hint of melon fruit. On the pallet, it is rich in concentrated grape also with notes of grapefruit and white rose petals. The acidity begins to dominate the finish which is moderate in length. I would say without food there isn't a great appeal to this wine it is high in acid and lacks a great body to balance it.

Deep ruby in the glass with nose of strawberry, Greek yogurt, and oregano. Bright acidity, full body, and moderate fine-grained tannins. Fairly concentrated flavors of yogurt, raspberry, and blueberry with average length. Balanced and pleasant!

An interesting flavor profile as it has a soft salinity that went better w/Brie & candied walnuts. then on its own. Held up well to Pesto Chicken w/pleasant finish.

Refreshing, bright acidity and yellow fruit, a bit floral, nutty yet a bit almond in after taste. Relatively full body.
Blinded and guessed marsanne blend, it turns out a cortese of piedmont

Water clear with a pale yellow tint and a lemon zest in the nose. The sip features a vivid citric acidity that is refreshing and includes a light oily mouthfeel. Fine clarity of flavors throughout, and very good with a wide range of foods including shrimp, salad, olives, chicken, and eggplant.

This is not a dry wine. Fruit forward considering 14.5% ABV. Nice acid balance. I agree with Costcowineblog rating of 89. Nice red cherry fruit flavor and the Barbera has a hint of earthiness/smokiness, similar to Mourvèdre. Great quality-price ratio (QPR). I think I will buy more.

No need to age it that I can tell.

Impulse Purchase @ Costco
12.5% abv - $15
Varietal: Cortese
Barrel shaped bottle. As Flickwines notes, bottle is amber tinted.

Served @10c/50f with Baked Salmon.

Having tried 'Gavi di Gavi' at my favorite Italian Restaurant, I was happy to find it at Costco.

Pale Yellow in the glass. Citrus and Lemon Blossoms on the nose. Initial taste seems deceptively bland on the palate, but fragrance and flavors become more prominent as the temperature warms to 55-60f. Tart acidity and nuances of pear, peach, and green apple come through in mid-palate, along with some salinity, finally ending in a nice tart, lingering finish.

WSET2 Course Notes; 10/22/2023-11/5/2023 (WineHouse, Los Angeles): Appearance: Pale golden.
Nose: Medium- intensity. Pear, lemon, and a little orange. Some honeysuckle.
Palate: Dry, medium+ acidity, medium- body, medium alcohol and flavour intensity. Lemon, green apple. The orangey note shines through for me, making it a more interesting wine. Medium finish.
8/18. Good, very solid.
