"Aromas of crushed wild berries, citrus peel, blue flowers and hints of sandalwood. Medium-bodied, supple and velvety with a ripe, succulent mid-palate and flavorful finish. Drink now."

"A lavender hue, the 2021 Barbera D'Asti Leradici is lush with aromas of floral perfume, candied plum, and a touch of mocha. It is full-bodied, and juicy throughout. Aged in stainless steel without any wood use, it has a supple texture but is structured, with fresh acidity and a bit of warmth, though it does not feel hot. It is a generous and charming red with good length and structure. Drink 2023-2030."

"This deep and darkly hued Barbera is packed full of juicy black cherry, blackberry and baking spices on the nose. The palate is fleshy as if chomping into a perfectly ripe plum. The wine is forward with primary fruit notes, allspice, vanilla and a fresh herbal note. The finishes with fine tannins and bright acidity. ‡ Jeff Porter"
