Barbera,
italy,
Piedmont
Barbera is Italy’s third-most -planted red grape. It is a prolific Italian grape variety almost certainly originating in the Monferrato area of Piedmont (in the province of Alessandria) but now planted extensively in all Piedmont and particularly around the towns of Alba and Asti. This is ground zero. Deep purple colour, a natural high acidity and notably low level of tannins are the hallmarks of Barbera wines. Barbera is a real unsug hero. STSWine
