Another uncommon, lovely offering from #caduceuscellars. 70% #barbera 30% #merlot - this is a medium bodied deliciously spicy cuvée featuring dried cherry, bright acidity and well-integrated tannins. #arizonawine . — 3 years ago

#barberadalba #barbera #piemonte delicious. Today it reminded me of Merlot flavor and aroma characteristics. Lots of tiny ripe red plums and hints of cigar box and tobacco and leather. Great riper vintage for this Barbera — 4 years ago

Pic #4. 2015 Andrea Oberto ‘Giada’ Barbera d’Alba. Offered a deep ruby hue, with a bouquet of aromas including dark red fruit, vanillin, and ambrosial notes, the texture was soft on the palate. This was paired so well with the tortellini photographed on the prior picture, 3.

I love it. #carignan #carignane #zinfandel #petitesyrah #syrah #alicantebouschet #monastrell #garnachatintorera #mourvedre #barbera #sonoma #sonomacounty it has this complexity and balance due to the blend that intrigues me and keeps me coming back for more. #ravenswood also incredibly fresh for 2014 vintage. Can age. — 4 years ago

Black cherry and violets commingle with red cherry lavender and raspberry in a clean, and enticing nose of fruit and flower. Blueberry, blackberry and cassis are extras, but this is not the fruit bomb the description conjures. There is something light, sunny and natural about the whole; wisps of sweet tobacco and vanilla blossom undulate on a forest and mushroom motif that feels springy, panoramic and breezy. The palate boasts dried cranberries, tangy raspberry and plump black cherry. Thyme a cinnamon dusting and the aforementioned tobacco, now a fine, smoky cigar. This one is gorgeous, and a testament to the estate. Ripe and juicy, but the oak is in check. Bravo! .

I knew I was going to like this #barbera from CA when the back label says #oldworldstyle . Loads of spice, sleepy fruit, restrained oak and taut tannins. Works well with spicy Indian appetizers. — 6 years ago

#langhe #barbera - wild cherry, some earth and forest floor on the nose which continued through in the palate. Medium body with pronounced tannins yet quite quaffable and a solid starter wine for a dinner party night. — 4 years ago

I’m bucking the review trend here and saying once this wine is allowed to breathe, there’s lovely Italian #barbera spice, wild cherry fruit and tannins with a firm but polished grip. — 5 years ago

Vintage 2015 / #barbera with sultry cherries and high acidity. I don’t taste the high alcohol (14,5%) because it is good integrated. Smooth taste. Also some chocolate. With risotto porcini. At ristorante Mario in Neck. — 6 years ago
