| Chateau/Producer: | Marco Bonfanti | | Wine Name: | Barbera d'Asti Stella Rossa | | Country: | Italy | | State: | Piedmont | | AOC: | DOC | | Wine Score: | 84 | | Notes: | I had not tried this particular type of wine before, so I am not sure what it was supposed to taste like. But it was rather nice. Nothing spectacular, but very drinkable. It has a lovely garnet color, and the scent is rich and fruity. The flavor is good, with a nice balance. It has only light tannins; the acids and fruits complement nicely. This makes it tasty and easy to drink, and good with foods. But it fails to stand out on its own with a strong character. | | Tasting Date: | 2004-08-03 | | Varietal: | barbera | | Price US$: | 13.19 | | Source: | Calandro's Supermarket, BR, Govt. St. |
