89 Points

Sunday, March 21, 2021 - Decanted. Now 1h after decant. Aromas of bright, candied cherries, some herbs, earth and bark. Prominent, bright red cherries mixed with candied cranberries, nice earthy, bark component, some herbs and minerals. Fantastic acids that befits barbera. Mild+ tannins on midpalate. Nice finish of herbs. candied cherries and cranberries. Well made and I do like this wine. But the strong, bright, candied, jolly rancher type flavors from the carbonic maceration that is the hallmark of D&R reds (at least when young) hides the varietal typicity for me. I think I'm getting tired and maybe even bored of the style. I say this as someone who probably drinks more beaujolais than any other red. 89+ - it's definitely well made.
