TASTING NOTES:
Ground pepper, tilled earth and black-skinned berry aromas all come together on this generous, full-bodied red. The fresh, delicious palate doles out ripe black cherry, black currant, licorice and clove alongside vibrant acidity and polished, fine-grained tannins.

I like the mineral, dark berry and lime aromas and flavors here. Real Barbera. Medium body, fresh acidity and a clean finish. Drink now.

Sweet blackberry and plum fruit gets a lift from vanilla and other spices in this polished red. Fresh and long, echoing the fruit and spice elements on the finish. Drink now through 2020.
