As a varietal, Barbera naturally has lighter tannins and higher acidity than other red varietals making it a great wine to pair with a variety of foods. Our 2018 vintage boasts an intriguing herbaceous-sage quality that integrates with bright red fruit notes to create a complex aroma. Nine months of aging in French and American Oak barrels adds sweet tones that complement the natural acidity of the wine. On the palate, and through to the finish, the bouquet carries over and merges with soft spice creating a balanced wine.
