The Boeger Barbera 2013 is a lush and flavorful red wine. Aromas of clove, cherry, brown butter, vanilla, caramel, and pepper combine for a riveting bouquet. You can’t help but take a sip, with a nose like that! The palate is lush and round, and the mid-palate feels full. Flavors of licorice are prominent and mingle beautifully with the intriguing aromas. Enjoy this red wine now through 2019. It will make an excellent addition to any dinner party and will pair well with rich red meats and braised greens.
