Idiom Barbera 2010

A grape varietal originating from the Piedmont region of Italy known for its deep colour, low tannins and high natural acidity. This refreshing Stellenbosch Barbera from low yielding vineyards has typical intense aromas of red and blackcurrant and offers hints of cedar wood and spice. A rich wine with a vibrant finish.
