2023 Righteous, Barbera, Linsteadt Vineyard, Amador County
Barbera journeyed to California alongside early Italian immigrants, a fitting arrival given its status as one of Italy’s most prevalent grapes. Renowned globally for its exceptional food-pairing versatility, it boasts polished tannins and vibrant acidity. The Righteous grapes from Linsteadt Vineyard consistently elevate the benchmark for wines of this appellation. This deep-hued beauty brims with red berry notes and a delicate whisper of mountain spice.
