Slightly dilute and soft but nice acidity and tangy, spritzy, bitter orange flavours. Very Italian, reminded me of Campari or Crodino. Good fun and just about worth £9 from Majestic.

Red fruits, ginger, barnyardy leatheriness. Spice and herbs. Fleshy. Dry. Good balance. Bloody tasty, which may have bumped the score up a couple of points higher than quality warrants.

Producer Dark brick red in colour with crimson highlights. The nose is already expressive and inviting with a complex array of fresh red fruits, dried herbs, forest undergrowth and aniseed. The palate is medium to full bodied, driven by core of supple raspberry and dark plum flavours courtesy of the Barbera. Nebbiolo adds structure and length alongside fine tannins. Enjoy in its youth with a wide range of rich Italian dishes.
