Austere in a good way for Barbera. I guess I should’ve expected it from this producer? Strong acidity and tannin holding the fruit up very well indeed.

Dried flowers, ripe dark cherries, and dusty tannins. Great pairing with the delicious beef ragout pasta and grilled pork chops.

When a wine is integrated like this one, I find it hard to point out the elements. Fruity, well balanced oak, nice acidity, hinge of ripe cherry sweetness. Lasting finish. Spot on at this age and worth the wait. Great pairing with Tagliatelle Bolognese.
