Barbera

Barbera has been a cornerstone of Piedmontese viticulture for centuries, with documented references dating back to the 13th century. Traditionally, it was the everyday wine of the region, grown widely in Monferrato, Asti, and Alba, providing a fresh and vibrant contrast to the more structured and long-aging Nebbiolo.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Barbera was widely planted due to its vigorous nature and adaptability to different soils. However, for much of its history, it was considered a rustic grape, often used for high-acid, easy-drinking table wines. The turning point came in the late 20th century when producers began focusing on lower yields, oak aging, and site selection to create more complex and refined Barbera wines.

Today, Barbera d’Asti and Barbera d’Alba are recognized for their expressive fruit flavors, lively acidity, and ability to age gracefully. Whether in its traditional, fresh style or a more modern, structured version, Barbera remains deeply tied to Piedmont’s winemaking heritage.
