This wine is 100% Barbera fruit and opened up with
aromas of sour cherries, plums, toasty oak, spices and violet notes. On the
mouthfeel, medium bodied (with alcohol coming in at 13.5%) with flavours of
spicy dark berry fruit, zesty acidity, fine grained tannins with a juicy medium
length finish. All things taken into account, this wine has a strong varietal character,
not overly complex but easy drinking and tailor made to be enjoyed at the table,
serve slightly chilled. Enjoyable, score 89 points.
