Decent acidity. Nice cherry on the palate. Light bodied. An ok every day kind of wine. I still like my Barberas from Italy. I don't think that this deserves the 70 point rating from another reviewer, but it didn't knock my socks off either.

Very hot showing every bit and more of its 15.5 ABV. Red fruit and flowers indicate potential of being average if it wasn't so off-balanced. I wonder if Trader Joe's took this dud off Castoro's hands as a package deal to get the amazing st somewhere malbec.
