Quattrocchi Reserve Barbera 2007, Good red from a particular grape


Quattrocchi Reserve Barbera 2007, By Bodega & Viñedos José Quattrocchi,USD 10

From a vineyard in Lavalle city, northeast Mendoza.
Nice red with sweet and velvety red berries marmalade. Good balance of acidity and alcohol with an edge of toast. Elegant even not complex. Not concentrated (Barbera grape typicaly goes this way) but attractive so. A mature wine in its best. An 87 points red that should be understood as Barbera grape. A good value for a delicate grape.
