November 19, 2023 - One of the best Barbera's I've had. Well balanced and polished medium bodied wine. Plum, dark cherry, currants and hint of vanilla. Drinking nicely!

One of the best Barbera I had so far. Ok I had not so many so far. But anyway reluctant, elegant, some spicy notes, tar and dark cherries. Refreshing acidity. Ripe tannins. 92-93 -
