Bright cherry red. And these bright-red cherries define the wine from first sniff to after taste. A hint of vanilla in the aromas tells me the wine has had some new oak treatment, but it is subtle and does not distract from the beautiful Barbera traits. Medium body, medium tannins. Ripe red cherry fruit on the finish driven by acidity that brings me back for sip after sip.
I bought this wine at deep closeout discount from MegaBev of Grand Rapids (formerly G.B. Russo) , but it is a great value at regular price, about $12 a bottle.
