Barbera d’Asti achieved DOCG status in 2008. Warm vibrant Ruby color with a bouquet of berry fruit aromas and sweet perfumed herb spice. On the palate flavors of plum, cherry and blackberry with pepper and herbs, good structure, balanced with savory acidity and soft tannins. Medium+ finish ending with juicy fruit. Exceptional! Great Value! — a year ago

This is an excellent CC. It has all you could want from an entry level wine. Beautifully balanced, with lovely dark cherry fruit, supporting tannins and the classic Sangiovese bite on the finish. — 6 months ago
