If tasting this blind there is no way I would guess a Barbera, more like a zin/petit sirah blend. Very bold dark fruit with a jammy mouthfeel. Might be a little ripe due to the subtle sweetness coming through. Viscous finish.

Odds & Ends - Reds: SRP: $25. An intense, lively nose of raspberry and blackberry, with some dried, overripe fruits in the background. The palate is extremely ripe and sweet. Easy to enjoy, but not terribly complex.

Fresh cherry red fruit, slight spice, clean flavors (no brett) with pure fruit, nice lively acidity consistent with Barbera. Overall very well made, drinking well at this age, perfect for the pizza tonight. Lovely finish. Great buy.

Notable flavors of raspberry, blackberry, & vanilla. Soft tannins, paired perfectly with a grilled ribeye! Finish was a little lacking, but otherwise very enjoyable!
