Floral, rather oily texture that explodes with peach, a saline/ citrus, honey and flowers. Quite a spicy element to this as well. For @ $ 20, this is excellent. — a day ago

Really good winery, though IMO they let the alcohol get too high in a few of their reds.

Thanks to Tom for this. Gorgeous people color. Nose of black red fruit, a touch of coconut and menthol. Fills the mouth with black raspberry and minerals. Mild tannins. This is absolutely delicious. — 16 days ago

Lots of dark fruit in the nose, and a bit of what smells like cinnamon. Plum, dark cherry, leather. Dusty tannins coat the mouth. At 13%; lots of flavor and depth. Enjoyed with bucatini and sauce made with garden tomatoes. — 24 days ago

Nice, inexpensive weeknight wine. I grilled some garden veggies and skirt steak, and this was good with it. Dark purple. Little tannic on its own, but with food it was really good. Lots of black fruit here. Little forest floor and a bit of herbs. — 11 days ago

Cherry syrup with some fizzy “spunk”. Watching the Pats outside on a warm, beautiful day. This was perfect change up. Love a good Lambrusco from time to time. — 19 days ago

Chocolate strikes me first. Blackberries and blueberries, a little clove, nice finish. Tannins are in check. Very pleasant. — a month ago

Really enjoyable wine. Definitely one of the best Barbera’s I’ve had. Blackberry and cherry with solid acidity. Fine with cacio e pepe. Sorry it’s gone! — 9 days ago

I suspect that “1952” is not the actual vintage (since Nizza didn’t exist as a DOC then). Just sayin’

This rocks. I wish I had a big bowl of mussels to eat with this. Floral, freshly cut lawn, a little citrus. Stones and Minerals and great acidity in this crisp, refreshing wine. So good. — 21 days ago
