Barbera d'Asti, Barbera 2009

White or Red: Red
Grape(s): Barbera
Origin: Italy 
Vintage: 2009
Price: $15.00

Overall:
Very easy to drink, smell is mild and pleasing. If you're not looking to make a statement but rather have a nice accompaniment to almost any meal, this wine is for your dinner party. Give it 10 minutes to breathe.


Deeper:
Earthy but with just a slightest tinge of sweetness on the front end of your sip. The finish and lingering in your mouth is mellow and understated with a hint of citrus.
  This is a safe bet.
