Great Barbera, reminds me of a good Barberesco. — 4 years ago
O’Neill says 9.0 is high and it’s serviceable. Nice old barberesco — 7 years ago
Leather tar, cherry, campfire, and nice integrated tannins. Not as nuanced and elegant as Barberesco, but would not argue against it otherwise. — 9 years ago
Not sure where I got this one but 13 yr old barberesco drinking within its window. Delicious. Perfectly balanced acid/tannin/fruit with more dark fruit than red. Tart plum with rose tar. Very nice. Mid palate a bit bitter but love the front and back end. Goes on and on. — 3 years ago
Amazing Italian Barberesco wine to go with our burrata! A gorgeous 2005! — 9 years ago
Phew. Took a few hours but when it opened it opened all the way. Everything I want in a barberesco. Now I'm committed to stashing some in the cellar. — 4 years ago

Outstanding. W’s favorite red wine ever, so far. To me like an Italian Pinot noir. At Vagabondo, vintage unknown. I see this vineyard may make many Nebbiolo types, strong Barbera and lighter Barberesco, and general Langhe blends. So I don’t know which this was. As tannins were not bad, favor a blend or a Barberesco expression. — 14 days ago
