Great value, $13.99 or so. Wild fruit, earth, dusty tannins, great acid. Lasagna night.

Garnet color with black cherries and plum on the nose and a little heat. Full bodied with some nice mouth feel mid-palate. Good acidity, but nicely balanced. Expected a bit more tannins up front. Detecting them more so in the pleasantly long finish. Blueberries, plums and pomegranates round out a blue fruit dominant taste profile. I could imagine enjoying this with a steak and rosemary seasoned oven roasted potatoes.

Yum!! What a delicious Barbera. Bold and richly fruity. Dangerously drinkable. Bought at The Mediterranean Way Market in Dupont Circle, DC.

A nice slightly acidic Italian red. Not dry and has a touch of acidity. Great wine to serve over dinner, but more so to guests who may not be red lovers. Crowd pleaser.

Just missing a giant bowl of pasta. For $13 you cannot go wrong. Plums and blueberries with nice acidity.

2021. Really nice fruity wine (even better on 1/2 price bottle night) at one of my favorite pizzerias!

2020 Vintage. Dry, dry, managed tannins and acidicness…nice balance but weak on flavor be it berries or whatever red-purple fruit one deems.

Really like this one! Medium body… tart at start with bready, earthy finish. Doesn’t last long but is nice.
