2022 Barbera, Il Ciccio

$50.00/750mlAlcohol: 15.2%
The 2022 Barbera, IL Ciccio. Hails from the Chalk Hill AVA. Il Ciccio, or little fat one, is a name we came up with because the Barbera grape, although small, is plump and fun to work with; it never disappoints. The 2022 Barbera is my style, which is to say full-bodied, round and deep. Il Cicio shows aromas of blueberries, cherries, plum, wild strawberries and crushed violets. This Barbera is fruity and floral yet remains a complex wine, with gobs of black berry flavors and black stone fruit, strawberry and with notes of balsamic, spices. The 2022 is full-bodied, soft, fruit forward delicious from start to finish.
