  February 11, 2016 - This was an enjoyable Barbera. Nice, smooth medium bodied wine. It had a good amount of fruit and was not excessively acidic.

  February 7, 2015 - Even better than the last bottle. Dark cherries and blackberries meet leather and cedar on the nose. The palate is alive with ripe fruit flavors and spice. Very smooth with a long finish, the wine may even improve with another year or two. I'd say grab it anywhere you can find it.

  February 1, 2014 - Deep ruby red color in the glass. Notes seem to be consistent with previous tasters. Leather and cedar with both bright and dark red fruits on the nose and hints of brown sugar or some baking spice. The balance on the palate feels like a peaking point for this wine in that it seems to be softening (this was probably pretty tight 2-3 years ago), but the acidity holds everything together perfectly. The tannin is somewhat light, but definitely has a presence. The finish is drawn out well by the acidity. Nice by itself but is seriously enjoyable with food. 89+

  February 1, 2014 - Leather, cedar, violet, woody, graphite. Black cherry, fresh. Some heat on the nose. Starting to show age, subtle secondary desert rain note I love so much. Palate is softening acidity is notable, very delightful! Perfect age.
