Palmina 2013 Walker Vineyard Barbera

Country: US / Walker Vineyard
Variety: Barbera California
Winery: Palmina / Central Coast

Steve Clifton captures freshness and vibrancy like few winemakers. This bottling shows deep and inviting tones of olallieberry, dill, anise, lavender and lilac on the nose. Powerful boysenberry fruit is lifted by spicy black pepper and even a chile zest on the palate, where strong acidity and firm tannins ensure long aging potential. It still needs a little time.
