Really enjoyable wine. Definitely one of the best Barbera’s I’ve had. Blackberry and cherry with solid acidity. Fine with cacio e pepe. Sorry it’s gone! — a month ago

At ten, this is simply incredible. Predominantly black fruit with acidity off the charts that lingers long after the sip. — 4 months ago

Funky, spicy, but with plenty of bright cherry to balance. Loud and proud, not particularly balanced but it’s working for this wine. Great with pizza. — 8 months ago

Bright ruby color. 100% Barbera. Aromas of plums, forest floor, and spices. Pallet is full of blackberry, black licorice and tobacco. Ripe, juicy and round. Pretty well balanced. Pairs well with foods that include tomato sauce. — 3 years ago

Nicely aged Nebbiolo. Nose a combination of lifted fresh and dried roses, strawberry, hint of caramel, earthy mushroom compost. Slightly dusty. On the palate a nice, silky texture without rough tannic edges and a good dose of acidity. Strawberry, raspberry, sour cherry. Decent length. A nice pairing with homemade carbonara. — 10 months ago

60% Nebbiolo, 30% barbera, 5% uva rara, 5% Vespolina. Light, low in alcohol, fresh and fruity. Really a joy to quaf. Would be great summer red. Having it with two Berkshire pork chops braised in wine and Marsala. — 3 years ago
