Piedmont
The Piedmont is located in
the northwestern corner of Italy, bordering France and Switzerland.
The Piedmont region is renowned
for wines from native grape varieties that have been cultivated for
centuries, such as the Nebbiolo, which is the source for red wines like
Barolo, Barbaresco, Gattinara, Ghemme, and Carema. But the most popular
red wine from the Piedmont region is Barbera, whose vines cover half
of the regions vineyards.

Medium red. Smoky aromas of redcurrant, tar and meat, with a liqueur-like quality. Smooth, sweet and expressive if a bit chunky and lacking in definition. Flavors lifted by a floral nuance. Finishes with slightly dry tannins and good but not outstanding length.
