Barbera DOC Alba Lavai

The Barbera DOC Alba Lavai from Ghiomo shows what this Piedmontese grape variety can achieve when treated with care: a deep ruby red in the glass, lots of manual labor in the vineyard, and a stylistic approach that focuses on substance instead of crowd-pleasing.

Ghiomo is a winery from the Albese that has found a loyal following with its Barbera wines — and rightly so. The Alba site is the classic core area of Barbera in Piedmont, where the grape variety develops its characteristic depth and freshness on calcareous-clay soils.

In the glass: black cherry, wild herbs, and a fine spicy note in the background. The acidity is present but integrated — the hallmark of a well-made Barbera. The tannins hold back, the finish remains long and slightly mineral.

Pairs well with lasagne al forno, grilled bell peppers with anchovies, or an aged hard cheese like Parmigiano Reggiano. Serving temperature: 16–18 °C.
