$12.99 from Trader Joe's.
I played Trade Joe's roulette, and while I didn't hit the jackpot, I didn't get my head blown off either.
Really not bad at all. Needed an hour of air, then it has a little bit of that tar and flowers Barbaresco nature plus some black cherry and earthiness. It's a bit muddled, but it comes together enough to make it a good value for $13.
I'd be disappointed if I spent $25, but at its current TJ's price, I'd buy again if dinner called for it, though I wouldn't call it a case buy either.
