I am quite impressed with this Barbera d'Asti. A little tight now, as others have noted, but tons of potential. Some perfectly ripe black and red fruit and the tar and earthiness is nicely expressed. Great acidity! Quite elegant.

Needs time. Far too young and pent-up now!

Ruby garnet and lithe, this definitely shows is cooler Asti origins over more robust Barbera appellations in Piedmont. Still, it shows lots of concentration, and it could probably use 2-4 more years to show more of what it's got!

Nice Barbera and found a bottle on a wine list at an Italian restaurant in St. Louis for $32. Easy decision to go with some bolognese in 95 degree weather
