I know, I know. Why are you drinking a 2004 Barbera almost a decade later? I was not expecting what I got which was a thrill ride of lovely acidity and a pure beam of elegant subdued fruit. Perfectly integrated to my taste, and a mouthwatering match made in heaven to the sublime Del Dio's margherita pizza here in Orlando. So impressed, but a lucky break to be sure. I don't plan to hold any more Barberas quite that long...

Dark red, almost purple. Smell is cherries and spice. Full mouth feel. Feels heavy. Like a baby barolo with the depth of flavor. Decent tannins and acidity. Loses some of the fruit. Decent value.
