| Wow. What a start for our first varietal Barbera. THis sleek wine is a powerhouse of complexity with a whole bunch of style -- it's like a bullet train running through an art museum. Big tart cherries pop out of theglass wrapped in rich plums, then this barbera snakes down the rails of your palate with cinnamon, bright French oak, and the rich fruit flavors of a cherry-plum tart splattered on the white walls of a gallery. With the locomotive fruit, full-steam-ahead structure, a bright acidic caboose and all the complexity of a Picasso, this is one train you won't want to get off. |
