RATINGS

93Wine Enthusiast

Strawberry and rhubarb jam mixed with fresh herbs are the first notes in this elegant and classically stylized Barbera. Wild tart berries both red and blue shine on the palate for their purity and balance. Fine tannins, vibrant acidity and savory flavors finish this wine and highlight its complexity and beauty of this wine.

17.5Jancis Robinson

A little rich and brooding on the nose with faint oak notes. Vibrant acidity and sour-cherry and blackberry fruit with silky tannins. Very long and focused and a little mouth-watering. Gorgeous length.

REGION

Italy, Piedmont, Barbera di Alba

Barbera d’Alba is a DOC centered around the town of Alba, and it is considered home to some of the best wines made from the Barbera grape. Barbera is the most frequently planted grape in Piedmont, thanks to its adaptability and vigorous character. It is easier to grow and less susceptible to adverse weather than Nebbiolo, which is grown in neighboring appellations. Barbera in general has relatively low tannins but high acidity, and the wines tend to have flavors of ripe currant and cherry. The Barbera DOC was created in 1970 and the DOC wines must be 100% Barbera.

TYPE

Red Wine, Barbera, D.O.C.

This red wine is from Piedmont. It is known for low tannins and high acidity, which makes it taste both light-bodied and rich. Barbera most often drinks early, but some variations can be cellared. The wine is relatively inexpensive and flexible for pairing.
