The wine region of Barbera del Monferrato
Piedmont DOC (1970) on the historic hills of Monferrato (Asti, Alessandria). Barbera as the king variety (the most planted in Piedmont, more accessible than Nebbiolo): deep and juicy reds with signature notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, anise, violet, dried herbs and a liquorice touch, bright fresh acidity and a moreish palate — Piedmontese conviviality in a bottle. Ink-coloured robe. Sparkling frizzante version.
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: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
