I Love You Barbera 6-Pack

I love you Barbera. BARBERA is the workhorse variety of Piedmont, and it is the first grape I fell in love with. It is deep, inky and concentrated and loaded with red and black fruits. Crucially though, it is low in tannin and high in acid, allowing it to go with everything.......and nothing. Smash it while you cook, or serve it with a delicate duck. It has an earthy character that loves the varied nature of charcuterie and it's amazing with cheese. It keeps everyone happy and is quite literally impossible to dislike. It's the Tom Hanks of wine.

Pio Cesare Barbera d'Alba is from an icon producer, and sadly the last vintage that Pio Boffa got into the bottle as the Piedmont icon died last year. We love BRICH as it is a different type of Barbera, light, unfined, unfiltered, low intervention and SO2 (but no funk) it cuts a very different figure (all also takes a while to open in the glass. The Tibaldi sisters Monica & Daniela are making some of the best Barbera and Nebbiolo in the region, this is textbook Alba. La Smilla Barbera d'Asti has an icy cold line of freshness, it's from the windswept Monferrato area. STSWine favourite Trediberri has produced their best Barbera yet, and finishing with a curveball, Oltretorrente Rosso Colli Tortonesi is Barbera with a few drops of a couple of stowaway varieties.
