Jeff Runquist, Amador County (California) Barbera 2017

Jun 30, 2020

By Allison Levine

 Dark red raspberry and bramble notes dominate, and the fruit is very ripe but just to the right level. Lovely texture. This really coats the palate with soft tannins and acidity.  It is a beautiful expression of domestic Barbera.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
