2014 Omaggio Barbera

Tasting Notes

On the nose the wine has a bouquet of mocha, coffee, and coconut husk with aromas of stewed cherries. This medium body red wine has a medley of fruit flavors such as Bing cherry, fig and prunes. Hints of caramel and black tea are mixed with sweet tannins. The wine has a lingering finish of vanilla and dark cocoa.

2014 Omaggio Barbera

Omaggio means “gift” or “offering” in Italian and this wine is just that an offering to the gods. This wine is a tribute or offering to Mother Nature. Omaggio is 100% Barbera. The wine was barrel aged for 30 months in French Oak barrels of which 50% were new barrels. This is our third bottling of Barbera from Red Heaven Vineyard located on Red Mountain. Our previous vintage was from 2009, 2010 and 2011 which are both still aging nicely.
