86 pts. Wine Spectator: February 28, 2005
A decent Barbera, with plum, berry and a light vanilla note. Medium-bodied and well-balanced, with a clean finish. Drink now.

If you’re looking for an alternative to Chianti, try this beautifully balanced, medium-bodied Barbara from a legendary Piedmont producer. There’s a persistent core of plum and mixed berries wrapped in a subtle assortment of spices. At the finish, there’s plenty of vibrant acidity that makes the wine an unusually good match with any tomato-based pasta dish.
