Winery Review: A blend of 60% Croatina, 30% Barbera, and 10% Uva Rarathe wine shows candied black raspberry and plum fruit mixes with balsamic and cocoa powder accents in this frizzante red, with light tannins, a creamy mousse, and enough acidity for balance. 84 points by Wine Spectator.
My Review: This wine was super tart and an obvious raspberry flavor was exploding on the palate. It was also very sweet and it was almost like grape juice. It only contained 7.5% alcohol content, which explains its juice-like characteristics for this wine. This wine was definitely not up my alley. I would give this an 80. I tasted it on its own with no food.
