That's actually what's written at the top of the back label [or for that that you don't know, what technically is the front label].  This is the first time that I remember really having a Barbera wine and I am totally astounded!

The first thing that I get from this is lovely and juicy dark fruit.  I am talking dark plums and black cherries in great abundance; it's almost like candy for grown-ups.  Then let it go another fifteen seconds and I start to get some spice.  The mouth is soft velvet and the color is a a decadent royal purple.

Now the thing is that I don't remember if this wine cost more than ten dollars or just under it but this one is worth it. I could see this being great with anything with red sauce or any red meats.  I could even see this wine with fish like Grouper or Sturgeon; okay, I have never had sturgeon but one day we're going to have dinner where Al is going to break one down.

Phenomenal!!
