  This was good but not amazing. Maybe it never quite opened up or maybe it was slightly over the hill. When it was expressive it was similar to prior bottles with fresh plum, baking spices, and nice acidity.

  Really classy, and very Barbera is style. Dusty tannins, refined varietal character. This is clean as a whistle, and would be a wonderful ringer in an Italian Barbera tasting. Beautiful balance, and a winner wiht the dish.

  Still a wonderful bottle of wine. Scott Harvey's the best. If you're not part of his wine club you're seriously missing out. 91-92 pts.

  Fruitier and less interesting/complex than some other vintages. Not sure if it's the age or just the vintage. Nonetheless, rather yummy and nicely balanced as always.
