Bricco Battista Barbera Del Monferrato

On the fruity side but well balanced and vigorous.

A bit less savory than my favorite Barberas but good acidity and length, with decent complexity.

Inky, with some black cherry, plum and a little hint of green pepper around the edges. Medium bodied with a good squirt of acid.

John opened with a sandwich one night without me. He didn't like it. I haven't tried it yet. He was not supposed to open it and was supposed to let it breathe. 😕
