white flower and mineral reduction

A somber nose half-heartedly offers up notes of forest floor

based on perfectly ripe and healthy fruit

seaweedy woodsmoke with ripe dark fruit aromas and a hint of raisin and prune

muscular Shiraz requires 5-7 years of additional cellaring and should drink well through 2030

Giuseppe Rinaldi, Barbera d'Alba other_regions_australia white flower and mineral reductionDark crimson. Bitter cherries and the most inspiring rendition of this grape variety tangy, not a trace of obvious oak (so different from the Barbera mainstream), so racy and yet with real depth. Long. Slightly spritz but utterly convincing. Enjy this while it has youthful fruit; no point in letting it fade.
