Community Tasting Note

  • pmarlo Likes this wine: 89 points

    January 20, 2024 - Wine was opened a week ago, then vacuum sealed. The first day this tasted more like a cross between a cabernet and syrah than a barbera. Today, there are tannins and even though they are drying they are, well, slightly mouth puckering. Fruit is very slight but there is a substance here. Needs to be sipped to be appreciated. Will air help?
    Yes it will. Fruit more apparent, cherry flavor, nice. Worth re-purchase. Mediums body, acidity, and tannins. Like vinnut and Mahmund reviews as they describe this the best. Solid 89 for me and this was at 7 years of age. Was ready but might even go several years more.
