Dark cherry and spice flow with remarkable energy, the Barbera lifting Nebbiolo's structure into something genuinely exciting. This unconventional blend achieves what the separate bottlings cannot. Vivid fruit married to serious backbone without any of 2021's typical heaviness. The synthesis feels natural and compelling.
