The wine

Barbera d Asti from Le Pole, in the hills around Nizza Monferrato, which is among the best ground for the variety anywhere.

Barbera has Nebbiolo acidity without its tannin, which is why it drinks so well young and why Piemontese growers have always treated it as the everyday wine of the region rather than the one to cellar. Nizza has had its own DOCG since 2014 for the finest examples, a recognition that took a long time coming.

The producer

In the rolling hills of the Monferrato, around the town of Nizza in the Piedmontese heartland of Barbera, this small cantina makes reds of real character. Barbera d'Asti is the local hero, a grape of juicy fruit and bright, food-loving acidity that has fed the region's tables for centuries.

Grown on south-facing slopes and made with a modern, careful hand, the wines balance vivid dark fruit with genuine structure. They keep Barbera's trademark freshness while adding depth and a savoury, gently spiced edge.

Supple, savoury and made for the table, these are wines that give Piedmont's charm without the Piedmont price tag. They are honest, characterful reds to drink rather than contemplate.

Serve at cool room temperature, and pour them freely with pasta, roast meats and everything else you love to eat.
