Slightly tart, could use some age. Dry and robust.

Bright, juicy, full bodied. Would be great with bolognese! Definitely one of my favorite barberas.

straight son. Pasty at the end like rubbing my hands over porous sun-warmed clay brick things. But the texture, not the taste. I mean, after bottomless scotch tastings, you know. You know. 😡

Cherries, strawberry, old world, great balance. Elegant but not showy. Need this with a bolognese ragu on a brisk fall afternoon.
