Was it a present Chris? I do not think I would pick this up from the shelf? 😅

@Peter van den Besselaar more of an emergency purchase. We needed some bubbly with our meal and I usually only stock special occasion Champagne. Went to the local bar and they suggested this as a good sparkler for under €25. If it had been under €15, I would consider buying again.

Fun label but it does not radiate quality imo

Inexpensive red- blackberry on the palate. Good weekday value with some grilled burgers or pizza. I would buy it again. — 5 years ago

Decided to go to Ruth's Chris this evening for SF Restaurant Week and had this wine off their list. It was a nice surprise given I had never heard of it but how can you say no to Carignan! — 8 years ago

A nice Barba, not too dry, not too much of anything, but it goes down nice. A barbaresco that doesn't require a huge mental commitment. — 9 years ago

Smell is raspberry hibiscus, some alcohol, taste is jammy and clear, straight forward there with ending tannins and grass that have a final burst of raspberry malt with a red magenta color — 5 years ago

This is a great bang for your buck. Super well balanced. Not to acidic. Not to tannic. Just right. Cranberry, dried cherry, some red plum with a nice medium body. Very impressed. — 8 years ago

9.5

The grapes - Randall Grahm likes to call the Mourvedre fruit Mataro - hail from Contract Costa County’s Del Barba Vineyard, 56 acres of vines at an average age of 73 years.
The extremely dark wine smells of black pepper, burnt cherries, licorice, meat and smoke. It's a beautiful nose. Savory squared. Flavors of dark fruit power over the earth and coffee and mint . — 8 years ago

Wow this turned out pretty nice for an entry level Barba. Dried leaves, tobacco, earl grey tea, asphalt and a floral violet notes. Good freshness and a present but integrated tannine structure. This is at peak. — 3 years ago
