A little meaty, and wonderfully Italian. When I had this a few years ago I loved the little touch of bret, but it's gone now. Would've rated it higher had the barn still been present

Enjoyed this Barbera while stuffing my face with focaccia at Eataly. Light and fruity with lots of cherry. All went down too quick.
