Barik surprisingly balances its level of salinity, acidity, and alcohol on the palate and the light wood touch coming from the short period of ageing in the barrel. A complex Primitivo with structure and length.

Tasting
Ruby red colour with intense purple hues. It is elegant and expresses notes of spices and balsamic herbs followed by red fruits under spirits and liquorice on the nose. The palate is soft, with excellent tannin structure and sapidity well balanced between alcohol and acidity.
Food pairing
The perfect pairing with lamb cutlets, BBQ and Asian cuisines with curry elements.
