More Reviews

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Holly Bruns rated this wine as 84/100 with the following review:

Light and crisp with an earthiness tinged, big, sour cherry nose. Tart berry fruit on the palate with a balance of violets. The juicy finish is furthered along by a cranberry/citrus zing. This needs a little food to balance out all that acidity, but slightly chilled with a slice of prosciutto, and it's all good.
Gambero Rosso awarded this wine 2 Glasses (out of 3) (signifying a very good to excellent wine) in their 2012 edition. They did not supply a written review. This single-vineyard Barbera has very attractive aromas of raspberry, cherry and cranberry. It is dry, smooth and fruity with a touch of licorice and menthol. Fine, lingering finish.
