So tart but more stuffing than many Barberas

The 2016 Barbera vigneti “Cerreto” appears a deep garnet color with a translucent core and slightly watery rim; medium viscosity. On the nose, medium intensity and initially gives an overall earthy impression accompanied by dark tart cherry, dark plums, red flowers and freshly laid asphalt. On the palate, the wine is dry with stewed dark cherry fruits and again with all the earth. Medium tannin, medium+ acid. The finish is tart and long. Tonight, this came across rather young. I would hold if I had any in my cellar and try again in 2023. That being said, it paired well with our pasta and sausage tonight!

Beautiful black cherry, black plum and tomato leaves on the nose. Very concentrated juice, tannins are so soft that you can barely feel it. Raging high acidity, great food pairing wine.

Intense, red and black fruits but balanced and refreshing.

Wine #2 at the Truffle dinner with wines from Piedmont. Rich ripe red fruit. A much bigger body than I was expecting. I would look for this wine again. @55 Seventy

Full body and medium-high tannin. Full flavour of strawberries and blackberry. Balanced all around

First barbera ever. Sour fruit, low tannin, great choice for food. Makes me want to try more barbera. Not sure its worth the $50+ price tag though. Served with pork belly porchetta and pesto pasta, new year lunch with the girls.
