Apogee of Piedmont Barbera: a gourmet, vibrant red with signature notes of ripe cherry, raspberry, plum and violet, characteristic fresh acidity and supple tannins that make it immediately drinkable. A direct, everyday Italian style, perfect with charcuterie and pasta. Fleshier Superiore versions (14 months ageing) with liquorice and dark chocolate notes, and Nizza DOCG at the summit. 6,000 ha of clay-limestone hills between Asti and Alessandria.


The wine region of Piedmont

Kingdom of Nebbiolo: Barolo and Barbaresco DOCG, long-ageing reds with firm tannins and lively acidity, complex aromas of withered rose, sour cherry, tar, truffle and undergrowth. More accessible, tangy Barbera on red fruit, supple, crisp Dolcetto. Sweet, floral sparkling Moscato d'Asti, mineral, lemony Gavi (Cortese) white, round, almondy Arneis from Roero. 50,000 ha across the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, UNESCO.
