Driven, Amador County (Sierra Foothills, California) Barbera 2012

Jun 8, 2016

By Rich Cook

Oodles of oak spice on top of ripe red fruit, with notes of leaf ride Barbera’s high natural acidity in this well structured big boy.  The spice carries through a long finish that adds a little lemon zest impression that keeps everything lively.  Grilled sausages with all the fixins will love being washed down with this one.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2016 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
