The wine region of Monferrato
Historic cradle of Barbera (native here): indulgent reds with notes of ripe cherry, plum and raspberry, signature fresh acidity and supple tannins. Also identity grapes: pale, tannic, peppery Grignolino red, aromatic Ruchè (rose, spices, DOCG at Castagnole), Freisa and sweet muscat Brachetto. Whites: ample Cortese (base of neighbouring Gavi), aromatic Malvasia. Fruity Dolcetto.
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.
The word of the wine: Consistency
In tasting, it is the equivalent of chewing (the chewiness of a tannic red wine is also mentioned). We then speak of firmness, fluidity, softness, hardness, and why not the crunchiness of an early wine by reference to the grape.
