Stunningly complex, mesmerising and fantastic.
Full of tertiary notes: Figs, hazelnuts, stemmed ginger, dried lemon peel, honey. Loads of caramel, baking spices, vanilla and tonka beans. Quite oxidative almost sherry like. Super bright acidity, wonderful balance and structure, a super lush and creamy finish. — a month ago
Dark ruby in color with a purplish hue.
Very fruity on nose with red and black fruits, wood, earth, tobacco and chocolates.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with cooked cherries, blueberries, plums, tobacco leaf, light oak, milk chocolates and spices.
Spicy finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a nice and easy drinking Barbera from Piedmont. Fruit forward and tangy.
Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food. The high alcohol is not noticeable at this point.
100% Barbera grapes from 20 year old vines were grown at 1,000 feet of elevation. Aged for 12 months in used French oak barrels.
15% alcohol by volume.
90 points.

Fine light drinking red with an assortment of heirloom varietals you would see in a Sandlands release. Down the middle table red style with good acid but lighter in alcohol and tannins. — 5 hours ago
