Italy’s most widely planted and adaptable grape, Barbera excels in the Asti region of Piedmont. Straightforward and easy-drinking, this DOCG wine typifies the Italian ideology that wine is meant to be consumed with meals and with a minimum of fuss and bother. Red fruits dominate this light-bodied wine, pairing well with the tomato-based sauces for which Italian food is famous. Enjoy this wine a few degrees cooler than heavier reds.
