Discover the grape variety: Brachetto

Sweet, lightly sparkling reds with a clear ruby robe, a light and refreshing palate (low alcohol, ~5.5%), with intense, refined aromas of rose, wild strawberry, raspberry, geranium, fresh grape and airy muscat. Sweetness balanced by fine bubbles. Absolute star of Brachetto d'Acqui DOCG in Piedmont (Asti and Alessandria provinces), a festive wine served with red fruit desserts. Autochthonous aromatic Piedmontese variety, related to Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains.

The wine region of Barbera d'Alba

Premium Piedmontese Barbera around Alba (heart of the Langhe). Fleshier, more concentrated reds than neighbouring Asti, with signature notes of ripe black cherry, candied plum, violet and sweet spices, characteristic fresh acidity and round tannins. Frequent barrel ageing (chocolate, vanilla). Generous palate, accessible young, age-worthy Superiore versions.


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: Mineral

Taste reminiscent of gunflint, chalk and many nuances of the mineral world, and reinforcing, especially in white wines, the notion of freshness and the sappy character.
