Such pure dark fruit. No heaviness or overworking. It's a smile producer. Love it

Dolcetto not Barbera. As balanced and elegant as the man who made it. Sweet black fruit like the name

Bought this one about four-and-half years ago and the aging did it well.

This is the softest Barbera I’ve ever had even with a 15.0% alcohol content. Blackberry, balsamic and blueberry 🫐 with the tannins smoothed through. Licorice on the finish. Just lovely.
