Soft tannin and stimulating acidity rise to meet this deeply fruited, social wine. Barbera carries the energy of a moonlit blackberry harvest and a cup of cinnamon tea. Swartland's answer to Piemonte Wine.
ENJOY WITH: Anything smoldering and/or Italian. This wine needs food and gets along with the layered flavors of puttanesca. Try it with blistered shishito peppers, grilled romaine, and dishes with burnt herbs.
DRINK WHEN:Sharing heartfelt greetings and savoring gourmet gatherings. Each time we sit down to drink this wine together, we're steeped in gratitude for where we met: The Swartland.
SERVING TEMP': Slightly chilled. We like to put Barbera in the fridge for 20 minutes and then enjoy.
