PnP last night, notes from memory: Nose of sour cherry, strawberry, dry spice. Palate is full and rich, follows the nose. Has the characteristic high acidity and moderate tannin - more of the latter than I expected. Quite delicious, though the fruit is tasting a bit cooked. 2012 is very old for a Barbera, but this one is hanging in there pretty well. Definitely time to drink up though.

I really enjoyed the fruitiness of this wine with moderate tannins. It drinks well by itself or with pasta or pork roast.
