This is fantastic. Immediately roses jumps out of the glass with bright red fruit and a bit of earth. There’s good mouth coating acidity with a somewhat chalky tannin structure. There’s nice red fruit and blackberry on the palate. Pairing is perfect with chicken and squash or meatballs and spaghetti. Just yum!

Restaurant purchase. This was fruit forward but had just the right structure to keep it balanced. structure was split btween tannin and acid. nice finish. ready to go but will benefit from a splash decant i think as it improved with air.

Top notch Barbera with luscious fruit and enough acid to keep it interesting. I wish I had a case of this to drink now + 3 years. Cherry, fennel.

Very serious Barbera... More fuller bodied, bright, lots of acidity to pair with food, fleshier than typical.
