Description Barbera was the variety that established winemaker Andrew Margan as a pioneer of alternative varieties, being the first to plant the Italian varietal in the Hunter in 1998. This juicy Gold-medal 95pt red has become the biggest seller at Margan's cellar door and the former 2019 vintage took out a Trophy. Margan’s 2021 vintage shows Barbera’s hallmark traits of crisp acidity and lifted aromas of sour cherries, raspberries and Turkish delight. Bright red fruits, crushed mulberries and savoury spice drive a typical light-to-medium bodied palate. An impressive, perhaps deceptively light colored red with "…magical savoury acidity... 95pts. Value Star" (James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion). Perfect partner for low-cooked lamb with tomato, garlic and olives.
