  August 31, 2020 - This is slowly absorbing its oak, with some years to go before the process is complete.

  December 14, 2019 - Camphor on the nose. On the palate, black cherry, raspberry, and blackberry, with notes of toasted oak and leather on the medium finish, with moderate tannins and strong acidity. Given the amount of oak showing, this should improve for a few years as it integrates. This was an average to good value at about $30.

  October 12, 2019 - Vin Chicago Anniversary Tasting and Sale (Vin Chicago - Highland Park IL): Tasting, brief note. Fleshy and rich, while also tannic. A sturdy Barbera that should benefit from more cellar time, but also a bit oakier and more modern styled than I prefer.

  September 8, 2019 - A little young, actually. This could probably use a few years, though in the meantime.it shows leather and cherries with the famous minerals and pencil shavings. Warm finish. Not too tannic but they are certainly there. A nice wine.
