Tasting - Wild Hog Barbera


Name - Wild Hog Barbera

Variety - Barbera

Region- California

Country- USA

Year - 2007

Price - $22.95

Shop/wine critic/winery review - Notes of ripe dark fruit on the nose, with a hint of earth.  the palate is greeted with a combination of dark fruits including, blackberry, dark plum, olallie berries and sour cherry.  Bright acidity and ripe fruit, hints to what this wine will become with some age.

My Review -  This is the first red wine I tried and I liked it.  I saw the price was expecting it to be good.  I stirred it in the glass and smelled it before drinking and got a dark berry fruit flavor.  Most red wines go down dry with not much taste, but this was different.

Food- none
