Wine Spectator

"Barrua 2011 is a rich blend of Carignan, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, aged for 18 months in barrels. The wine has a compelling international signature, inspired by the great wines of Bolgheri and Bordeaux. The fruit reaches perfect maturity with complex aromatic intensity. In the background, there are lovely spices, tobacco, and notes of dark chocolate that build the style of the wine." (Wine Advocate 2014 - Robert Parker)

About wine:

Barrua 2011 is a rich blend of Carignan, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, aged for 18 months in barrels. The wine has a compelling international signature, inspired by the great wines of Bolgheri and Bordeaux. The fruit reaches perfect maturity with complex aromatic intensity. In the background, there are lovely spices, tobacco, and notes of dark chocolate that build the style of the wine. Barrua should be enjoyed for at least 5 years.
