Disclaimer: I’m not a Barbera fan. This is decent pizza wine. Nose is very winey. Scents of barrel room, tangy dark berries, and licorice. You can smell the acidity. Lean and cleansingly acidic in the mouth. Crisp finish.

OK, I’ve done my Barbera requirement for the half-decade.

Very nice barbera! Punches quite above its weight - would love to try the Barolo or barbaresco. Quite classic and old school with lots of earth and rusticity but still accessible now with a decent amount of air and a slight chill.
