Packed w/ dense fruit: blueberry, plum, great texture. Still has years
to go. Reaffirms Barbera as one of the great food wines for me.

18s seem ready to drink. This floats in the mouth. Firm and friendly.

Still rather fresh with red and black cherries (also some jam), smooth vanilla and a very good balance of acidity and sweetness. Round and full in the palate. Perfect to drink now.
