Barile

2012 Lodi Barbera, Muscat, Zinfandel, Vermentino

The Uvaggio Barile from the renowned Lodi region is an exceptional red blend crafted from Barbera, Muscat, Zinfandel, and Vermentino grapes. This vintage showcases a vibrant ruby hue, enticing the eyes as much as it does the palate. On the nose, it offers an aromatic bouquet of luscious dark fruits, perfectly complemented by hints of floral notes and spice. The wine strikes a harmonious balance with a medium body, bright acidity, and an inviting fruit intensity that makes it both engaging and refreshing. Tannins are soft and approachable, allowing for easy enjoyment on its own or alongside a variety of dishes. The Uvaggio Barile is indeed a delightful, dry wine that embodies the spirit of its Lodi origins.

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
