Tasting Notes
Barbera done differently, this. It's wild fermented, gently worked over a couple of weeks on skins and then left in old oak for fourteen months, so nothing ever gets in the way of the fruit. And what fruit it is, all bright and tart, red and black cherry with a savoury little lift of dried sage and a twist of pink grapefruit pith. Barbera's natural zip of acidity makes it dangerously drinkable, the sort of red you'll happily work your way through a bottle of. - Aaron C
Vino Friendo is a garagiste Canberra-based producer making expressive, lo-fi wines with an emphasis on drinkability and minimal intervention. Working with fruit sourced from Canberra and surrounding cool-climate regions, the wines are made simply and intuitively, with native fermentation and a light hand in the cellar. The range is playful and contemporary in feel, favouring freshness, bright fruit and savoury detail over extraction or polish.
