Nice Barbera d'alba that has a slight resiny/incense olfactory & flavor profile that doesn't detract from the overall enjoyed experience in the tasting. Very balanced & enjoyed very much!

A standard Barbera by all metrics. Lacks some of the tar and cherry notes in the best examples of this grape. Better on day 2.
