The wine region of Barbera d'Asti
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.
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
