Bright cherry and raisins. A bit of a "nail varnish" taint to it but doesn't ruin it. Something green I can't pinpoint. Decently acidic and tannic. Probably wouldn't buy it again, but I don't hate drinking it.

Dried cherries, candied plums, red currant jam, and potpourri. Nice acid and a clean finish.

Nice 3 year barbera. A bit tart but good fruit and tannins. Didn't know it was a screw top when I ordered it at a nice Italian ristorante.
