Barbera can be made well, but this one isn't even particularly Barbera-esque. It's soft, acidic and sweetly simple, with jammy flavors that are overripe and pruny.

Dry, acidic and tannic, in the manner of a young Barbera, but the flavors of cherries, blackberries and currants aren't powerful enough to outlast the astringency. Drink this tough, rustic wine now.
