One of the nicer, more acid-driven and energetic Barberas I've had today.

Purple floral and spice on the nose. Blackberries, blueberries, creamy raspberries, cherries, a hint of dark chocolate, oak and a semi dry purple floral finish.

Picked this from a restaurant wine list. Delicate nose of cherries and roses. Medium- body, red fruit, earth and pepper on the palate. Medium finish.

Ngt bättre parkvin med inslag av fat. Hallon, jordgubbar, surkörsbär. Ngt söt fatkryddig. Pigg syra, snälla tanniner.
