Dark fruit, earthy but lively and mineral. Great example but lacks the oomph to justify the steep price

Nice. Strawberry and raspberry with a kind of brininess throughout. Not amazing or complex but definitely enjoyable.

2010 has lots of acidities and lots of fruit still not fully merged with the structure, therefore it is still top heavy and slightly unbalanced. It still possesses the sense of authority, integrity and completeness all great wines have.

Traditional Barbera. . Dark fruit on a high pitched acid frame. Perfect with Windy City Pizza.
