Thursday, September 10, 2009 - Cool red and blue fruits with firm acidity. Hints of baker's chocolate on the palate; not oaky creamy milk chocolate. Open twenty four hours, the acidity settles down, which results in a much rounder, smoother mouthfeel. Nice, long finish of juicy fruit backed by tangy acidity. A traditional, balanced, well-made Barbera that is enjoyable alone or with food. Approaches the quality level of G. Conterno's Barbera, but without the length and breed of that wine.
