A lot going on here with the nose - brooding black & red fruit with some smoked meat accents in the background. Still with some unresolved tannin on the palate, this is a rustic wine, but pretty interesting. I will be curious how this shows with our dinner - I like it now, but it feels like it has another gear as well.

Maybe it's the 'Sportello' (a somewhat celebrated Boston restaurant) bottling, or maybe it's the 2017 vintage, but I can't remember this, or any barbera, being this heavy, leggy, and black, which makes this 15% beast The Wrong Hero on a 95° day. I remember this wine being fun, not admirable. Violets lighten the blackberry/strawberry on day 2, and I wouldn't be surprised if it improved over another day or two, but I had too much fun criticizing this wine to save any for . . . Science

Used in Boar Ragu, and subsequently finished bottle with leftovers. Deep & rich kind of barbera like earth & red fruit with solid acid & tannin core. Definitely a food wine, and tomato sauce would not hurt.

A darker translucent ruby in the glass; red & black fruit, with a smoked meat note as well on an interesting nose.

Medium-bodied, maybe a touch less acidity than I prefer, lengthy finish. Very good, and still might have time in front of it.

Good again, though this time around I found a bit of sweet cherry overload. Otherwise nice.

Last glass from a bottle opened a couple of days ago.

Color is a murky red at the core, lightening out to translucence on the rim. Primarily red fruits on the nose, with some floral notes as well.

Full-bodied and rustic, with adequate acidity. I believe that Bonarda is the primary grape in this - not sure if it is a blend or all Bonarda. Likable, but you wouldn't call this elegant.

After 60+ minutes of being open, partially consumed at blind tasting of Italian and Spanish wines, this had a delightful bright dark fruit nose, and was very nice on the palate.

Probably past its drinking window. Nicely balanced but not much body. Definitely should have drunk sooner.

Malvasia Bianca, Malvasia more

7/14/2016 - juffer Likes this wine: 89 points

I could swear this must be a blend with some Muscat rather than just pure Malvasia. It has such a distinct element of muscat in the nose and the finish, with very distinctive orange blossom in both the nose and finish. Beyond that, some additional generic floral in the nose, medium weight in the mid palate and a good long bitter orange finish. Much less saline than I'm used to in Malvasia. Different, but nevertheless very enjoyable.

Pleasant Bouquet, strong, lush fruit up front, balanced finished with an acid accelerator as expected from a barbera.

Nose not too expressive, but seriously tasty. Tart red plums and sweet black cherries. Nice richness and tannic grip. Wish I bought more!

Rich red in glass. Fresh red fruit, cherry, in nose, same on palate with some bit of mineral/earth. Pretty lush and tasty. Nice acid back drop with light tannin complements the robust fruit and elevates the wine. Good with tomato based Israeli couscous and steamed kale side. Very good QPR.

This is the Italian corollary to Beaujolais. There is a touch of earth in the aroma but otherwise this wine has the same profile as a Cru Beujolais.

5/19/2013 - young collector Likes this wine: 84 points

Color: some browning, medium saturation. Bouquet: earthy/leafy. Stems? Flavor: Some pinot fruit buried in the earthiness, no noticeable tannin, acidity not intrusive but enough to give it lift. Body: medium, the 12.5% on the label seems accurate. Very much an old-world style, none of the flashy fruit of an OR or CA pinot, but the bottle slid down very easily! Not a keeper.

Purple-red color with some translucence. Aroma is medium red fruit with a subtle something else that you might guess when you look at the bottle's artwork. Well integrated aromas. The fruity taste is delicious and there is plenty of structure from tannins and acidity to hold up to it. Pleasant finish without any lingering heat. This is an aesthetically rich wine.

At the first sip, a lot of fruit comes through. But upon swallowing, I was struck with an overpowering but bizarrely masochistic (read: enjoyable) moisture-draining sensation. I immediately thought of the brooding tartness of pomegranate, which is an automatic win for me. Then cranberries. I was blown away by the concentration and focus of this wine. It knew exactly what it wanted to be without being overpowering.

I keep expecting this wine to start going downhill, but it is still a solid 92 or more to my palate. Very old world in every way, nice tannins, lovely dark fruit w/hints of pencil shavings. I might have thought I was drinking a Beaucastel CdP of the same age.
