Community Tasting Note

Friday, July 4, 2014 - Its got the barrique right up on the nose. Lots of sweet oak but not its not really a bad thing. And follows through the palate in the same way.

Although, really, does it have to be done this wine? Well yes says the Fratelli. Massively powerful Barbera needs some new oak to support the fruit and the power. There aren't enough tannins in the fruit so the oak gives it that support.

You like Vietti, why not this Big Barbera?
