Rich dark, with blackberry and plum overtones. Wonderful Italian Barbera at a great price from HEB

This wine wears well..about 5th time, still velvety palate, deep red berry taste of a fine Barbera D’ Asti... reminiscent of many to most of the better Piedmont Barbera wines. Almost too smooth, not as full-bodied nor quite as balanced as many but still a full flavor, dry, medium bodied wine. Very drinkable...raising rating...drink again and again as everyday wine.

Tart and acidic with a light spice finish. Strong flavors, but not an enjoyable experience.

Has that funky licorice and black cherry nose so common in Italian wines. Flavor is nicely tart and juicy with a bit of drying tannin to finish.
