2010 El Dorado Sierra Foothills Barbera

The Auriga Cardanini Vineyard Barbera from the 2010 vintage is a delightful red wine that showcases the exceptional terroir of the El Dorado Sierra Foothills. This wine presents a medium-bodied profile with bright acidity, which provides a refreshing lift to its character. The fruit intensity is prominently expressed through vibrant notes of ripe cherries and plums, complemented by subtle undertones of spice and earthiness that reflect the region's unique climate. Tannins are well-integrated and offer a soft structure, enhancing the wine's accessibility and food-friendliness. This Barbera is perfectly balanced, making it a versatile choice for various pairings, from roasted meats to hearty pasta dishes. It is a truly remarkable expression of this varietal in the Sierra Foothills.
