Reviews and Ratings

Nick Onischuk - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The Boeri Barbara D’asti Superiore 2012 is a full bodied wine that has nice aromas of cherry, blackberry and plum. Pair this wine with your favourite pizza! Tatsted November 2016 (89/100)
Pamela Chiles rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

A rustic Barbera from the hills of Piemonte, northern Italy. Smoke and cherry make this perfectly quaffable with pizza or pasta with mushroom sauce.
Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Cherry, plum, wood smoke, baking spice, with a tangy dark berry finish. An enjoyable wine to enjoy with stews, pizza, or simply on its own. Tasted November 2014. 88 points. Matt Steeves - www.nataliemaclean.com
Douglas McMillan rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Inky and meaty, with juicy dark berries and some minerality. Blackberry and cherry in the taste with some smoke. A tasty wine for beef chili.
Sean O'Regan - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Nov 16, 2014: Medium ruby, red berry, light baking spice and mineral. Juicy, medium body, simple palate with sour cherry and fine tannins and a medium finish. Great pizza wine.
Astrid Young - Sommelier ISG CAPS rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

Rich dark berry fruit, with blackberries and some florals, maybe a hint of road tar. Almost overripe on the mid palate but bright acidity prevents it from being overly dense. Meaty and smoky, great for barbeque tonight.
