Reserve Barbera 2014
The Story:
Barbera is a unique grape that produces a light-bodied wine with intense tannins. Its bright fruit aromas lead one to believe the wine will be light and fresh but, the dark color contradicts the aroma profile. Add the intense tannins and acidity and you have a wine that can be tough to analyze. We’ve found a special place in our portfolio for this unique wine.
The Tasting Notes:
The 2014 Barbera expresses similar crushed violet notes of the 2013 but, with the addition of fresh cut grass and lavender aromas. Rustic meats and porchini mushrooms would be an excellent complement to this wine.
