Staff Pick Notes

Another great find by our buyers! A light-to-medium-bodied red wine that goes down easy. Fresh but not too fruity, this has all the hallmarks of a classic Barbera and it's perfect with a slight chill. A pleasant grip on the palate makes this a nice match for cheese and sliced meats. Go to town!
