Barbera d'Alba DOC Piedmont

A Barbera d'Alba that brings together berry fruit and structure: dry, dark-fruited and with the fresh acidity for which the grape variety is known in Piedmont.

Bruno Giacosa is one of the defining names in Alba and throughout Piedmont. The Casa Vinicola has stood for decades for wines from the Langhe, especially for Barolo, Barbaresco and, of course, Barbera. The Barbera d'Alba DOC comes from the heart of this region, where the vine has long been at home.

In the glass, the wine shows a deep purple. On the nose, blackberry, black cherry and blueberry are at the front, plus notes of cedar wood, a hint of vanilla and a fine almond note. On the palate, it feels dense, with clearly perceptible tannins and the lively acidity typical of Barbera.

Recommendation: Serve it at 16 to 18 °C. It goes with tajarin with meat sugo, brasato al Barolo, grilled sausages or aged mountain cheese.
