The nose is earthy, with cassis and black cherry liqueor notes. First impression of the flavors is of sweet, spicy, slurpy, ripe black fruits, but the taste shifts quickly in the mouth to hints of toast, warmth, charcoal, black currant, and finishes cleanly, with lingering hints of liqueur and toast. A very striking wine, quite different from Italian Barberas, with a full bodied hedonistic richness and dry tannins that call for great food. Another fascinating wine from Rick. jy


Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

A tiny amount of this wine is made from grapes grown in the Columbia Gorge, very low yield, showing that there's quite a future for Italian varietals in those parts of the NW with the correct growing conditions.
