Sarah’s Vineyard 2012 Barbera (Santa Clara Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Barbera California
Winery: Sarah’s Vineyard / Santa Clara Valley

Baked strawberry, leather and a touch of caramel show on the nose of this dusty, rustic take on the Italian grape. The flavors are similar to the nose, with lots of turned earth sprinkled over a brighter, acid-driven black-cherry background.
