Light tannin+ high acidity can make wines made from Barbera taste "juicy". Italy is Barbera's homeland, some of the best examples of this grape are from the Piedmont region, produced in a fresher, more herbaceous + fruit driven style.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Earthy, cigar box, rustic leather, minerality + berry cobbler
Complex, with oak-forward notes now, will develop with time allowing more fruit to open up.
Vineyard Notes
We have two blocks of Barbera here on our estate. One is at the entrance to BOTTAIA just to your right. It is head trained Block 30 (meaning no arms, just up one pole) that will be hand picked and he other is just behind near our pool, Block 31. Both produce beautiful rich fruit that makes this luscious wine.
Production Notes
Aged in Barrel + Cask
Food Pairing Notes
The higher acidity pairs well with rich meats, mushrooms and pasta.
