Love love love this wine! So fruity and round, and not tannic. I just wish they shipped to France! I always buy a few bottles when I am visiting California. Fantastic wine at a reasonable price for the quality. — 8 years ago

San Hercurmer delle Frecce Shake Ridge Vineyard Barbera 2018

Tart black cherry, anise, pine and alpine vibes, high acidity, low spicy tannins.
A beautiful Cali Barbera with the acidity and spice of Piemonte, with the high toned fruit of California sunshine. I love!
