2022 Estate Barbera
Tasting notes
Deep purple in color, this wine stands out right away. A few swirls and all the notes of plum, blackberry, star anise, rich mahogany and nutmeg take over your senses. A wow wine full of juicy, electric acidity is complemented with notes of blueberry pie, tart cherry, violets, black cherry and cinnamon. This wine’s long finish and well integration just won’t let you leave it alone.
