  It still drinks quite young and structure is still there in force...Barbera with 14.5% alcohol.....not great...

  Still amazingly youthfull. No real signs of age. Fresh, fruit driven with just some light sweetness. Fresh, easy drinking. Good stuff!

  This is finally approaching it's peak...almost there. Dark Cherry, less structure than previous, but large scaled for a Barbera. This should continue to drink well for years.

  I very strong and heavy barbera. Typical Rivetti style of the past years. His style is getting more elegant now. This wine still tastes young. Needs to be decanted. On the palate cherry, tar and plums. Peak in 1-2 years.

  This still is primary. Try in a year or two.
