What a difference a day makes. After a quick swirl and a sip I was ready to tip this down the sink. There was a graphite and metallic type aroma which just didn't sit right.
A day on and we were back on the dance floor. All the expected characteristics of Barbera present themselves well. Dark plums, some sour cherry and savoury herbs on a nicely built palate. Good acid adds to a tremendous length.
To navigate this wine successfully I'd suggest to decant it for a few hours.
Overall, I was very happy it now day one of it being open is a distant memory. Hello pizza and pasta!
