Tonight's wine is an Italian Barbera I picked up while browsing at the local wine shop.
Tasting Notes:
Beautiful ruby red in color with black cherry and sweet cranberry on the nose. Abundance of semi-tart raw red fruits up front with tannic pomegranate and liquorice finish. A punchy acidic early, but with time fades to provide a nice balance.
Final Thoughts:
It's a very nice wine. Medium complexity with an interesting bold initial flavors that dulls a bit during the finish. The early acidity provides a bit of pizzazz, though as it fades the body of the wine comes forward. Enjoyable.
