Barbera Estate Grown, Columbia Valley

Barbera Estate Grown, Columbia Valley Wine Details
Price: $20.00 per bottle

Description: Barbera, a significant Piedmont grape, is known for its versatility and adapatability to almost any environment. In the past, growers have often planted it in their poorest plots to produce large yields and make rustic, tart table wines, but with the modernization of Italian viticulture and winemaking techniques, babera is today producing powerful, concentrated, and distinctive wines. Barbera wines generally possess very dark berry flavors, including blackberry, black currant, raisen, and prune, as well as hints of clove, nutmeg, black pepper, and smoke. They can be either fresh, fruity, and youthful, or produced in a drier style that ages well for five to seven years.
