Lockdown Wine #108. Not exactly your textbook Barbera. Very dense. Coffee grounds. Dry. Over the top alcohol at 15.5%. Needs heavy food to match. Can't really fault it, just a style I don't enjoy.
Three be the things I shall never attain:
Envy, content, and sufficient champagne.

I don't know. I think we can fault a 15.5% table wine, but I may be out of date...
