Certainly the most serious Barbera I think I’ve had, from a very traditional producer. I believe this vintage is actually his current release, which is a bit nuts (reminds me of Lopez de heredia...but with barbera). Deep dark color with deep red fruit on the nose and lots of good earth and some leather. Finish has good refreshing acidity, but this is better after 1 hr in the decanter vs 4. Very nice. — 2 years ago
2007 Mauro. HB w J&L B, J&J Koz. Drank last, after the ‘95 Artadi and ‘68 Lopez de Heredia. Great! Most lush and fruit-forward of the bunch. Loved it. — 3 years ago
Enjoyed the full bodied, tannic, dry everyday wine — 4 years ago
Floral tension, ripe strawberries, and volcanic minerality combine to make a feminine personality. Given its birth in Brouilly, it displays Mediterranean qualities of jammy fruit and iron. Acid stays lively while structured tannins give depth and adaptability with food. As always, Cru Beaujolais gives high QPR no matter the vintage. Drinking this bitch young as one should. — 5 years ago
Fantástico vino... agradable — 3 years ago
So many perfect things about this wine. Natty harmony. Perfect with briny olives or morel mushrooms. I could have mistaken this for R. Lopez de. Herredia, Rioja or Domaine Octavin, Jura. — 4 years ago

Classic Lopez. Took a while to open up, but went through a lovey evolution over the course of the evening. — 9 months ago
