08 barbaresco $30 @ Charlie's. Complex and elegant. Medium bodied. Easily overpowered by aged cheeses & olives. Best on its own. 1 hour in decanter made a big difference. Trim the tree party w wife & kids. — 9 years ago

Really unexpectedly trim and bright. Easy drinking w soft tannins and surprisingly bright light red and black fruits. I expected a much fuller, richer and more powerful wine for the vintage but it was absolutely lovely. — 10 years ago
