Very impressive Barbera with rich, dark fruit on the nose - violets, dark cherries and perhaps some overripe strawberry topped with expensive tobacco. Perfect balance between fruit and maturity. Oak nicely integrated and subtle. On the palate, much more red fruit and a refreshingly high acidity.

Nice structure with great intergation betwenn fruit and acid. Long aftertaste. Good stuff, but lacking somewhat in complexity.

Outstanding Barbera. Rich raspberry, coffee, some oak. Great acidity and nice silky tannins.
