Consumed May 2015. Received 10/2008 from Viansa. Tinting flavors of ripe plums and BlackBerries with a long lush finish. This wine is a blend of 88% Barbera, 6% Primitivo, 4% Teroldego and 2% Tempranillo. This big, juicy wine goes wonderful with barbecue fair, grilled pork tenderloin or lasagna, but is also wonderful by it's self. It has soft tannins and a long, smooth finish. A full-bodied wine that is best when decanted. On the nose, dried flowers and wild berries. On the palate, ripe plums, spices and BlackBerries. $42 retail.
