By far, the most serious Barbera I have come across. A 16% beast that opens with dark cherry, to cedar, to a long, warming bitter chocolate finish. Single vineyard beauty with a commitment to terroir. Awestruck.

Fresh fruits on the nose with some nice oak, round and delicious. Singing!

Drank a 2009 magnum at home with French cheeses. Perfect.

One of my absolute favorites. Incredible body. Unexpected depth. Powerful color. Lasting bouquet. Superb nose. Tight, crisp tannins. Silky finish. Pairs well with rich foods.

Wine wakes up after decanting for 30min. Light body, low tannin and medium acidity, berry fruits, cherry, bit of spice and oat, easy to drink on its own.
