  December 31, 2020 - Color: Dark ruby red
  Nose: Leather and spice, raspberry
  Palate: Dark fruit, jam, with a nice long finish
  A little higher alcohol on the palate. Also drinks younger than one would expect at 10 years out.

  January 1, 2015 - PNP. Garnet w slightly purplish edge. Cork perfect. Nose with dark fruit and hints of oak and a hint of brine. Swishing shows high tone and alcohol and wood spice on the finish. Sipping gives glycerin laden fruit and a medium finish. Good.

  January 31, 2014 - This is a beautiful Barbera. Not a big nose...it smells like wine, but take a sip and...HEL-lo! Dark berries, maybe some cranberry, more berries. This is one of those wines that its good when you first open, then in about 15 minutes, you think, my this is a good wine...then 15 minutes later you call the winery to order a case. Yup. Liking this one...and the finish, never quite finishes.
