Discover the grape variety: Barbera noire

This variety has been cultivated for a very long time in Italy - currently in second place - and is very well known in Piedmont. It is, however, little known in France and is registered in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grape Varieties, list A1. It is not related to the white barbera, which also comes from the same country and region. It should be noted that other Italian grape varieties, mainly black, bear the name barbera, which should not be confused with the black Barbera that can also be found in Eastern Europe, South Africa and America.

The wine region of Valence

Valencia is a province in the centre of Spain's sunny east coast, perhaps better known for its oranges (and paella) than its wine. The administrative Center of Valencia is the city of the same name, the third largest in Spain and the largest port on the Mediterranean. Archaeological evidence suggests that wine making in Valencia dates back more than a thousand years, but the region has never been particularly prominent on the world wine map. In modern times, Valencia's wine production has focused on quantity rather than quality, although this is gradually changing.

The word of the wine: Free-run wine

The free-run wine is the wine that flows out of the vat by gravity at the time of running off. The marc soaked in wine is then pressed to extract a rich and tannic wine. Free-run wine and press wine are then aged separately and eventually blended by the winemaker in proportions defined according to the type of wine being made.
