    December 7, 2022 - Second last bottle. Lovely rich fruit plum spice secondary flavours. Drinking very nicely - a little alcohol heat at the end

    April 30, 2015 - Kermit Lynch's Italian Roadshow (with the winemakers) (E&R Wine Shop, Portland OR): Very light aromas, but pretty. Soft and mellow palate which is creamy in texture and offering light, but pure red fruits. Puckering and lean on the finish. Very soft fruit. This is a nice quaffer with good balance and purity, but without much complexity.

    Pal: tart cherry, chocolate, vanilla, stem, forest, acidic, earth, silver acidity, oak
    Feel: medium, acidic
    Finish: medium
    T8 (could be a 9 for being typical Barbera d'Alba)
