A fun little wine for the price. Soft dark fruits and lite bodied. A good picknick wine perhaps. Nothing to complex or impressive though. 2012 vintage.

An excellent food wine, this Barbera has bright blueberry and blackberry tones and can stand up to almost any Italian dish.

Really enjoyed this and at 12 buckaroos it's a bottle I'll buy again! Not super complex but has the body and richness I'd expect from a Barbera. Paired quite well with my standing rib roast yo.

Light. Smooth. Simple wine. Great for any occasion you don't need to focus on the wine.

This wine was way to acidic for my liking. Hints of battery, elmer's glue and giants stadium parking lot. Hopefully the 2013 smells of MetLife.
