It doesn't matter if the glass is half empty or half full...There is clearly room for more precious barbera!

Piedmont blind tasting. Young, Purple, no tannins, muted nose, some cherry?, simple but sound. Called it as 2011 Barbera d'Asti. You go girl. ;)

Dried plum, black pepper and a touch of cinnamon. Dry and acidic but not overly tannic.
