Barbera
Barbera is a red grape variety from north-west Italy and one of Piemonte''s most important everyday-to-premium grapes. It is known for vivid acidity, juicy red and black cherry fruit, moderate tannins and a naturally food-friendly profile.The classic regions are Barbera d''Asti, Barbera d''Alba and other parts of Piemonte, though the grape is also found elsewhere in Italy and abroad. Depending on yield and ageing, Barbera can be bright and casual or dense, polished and oak-aged.

What does Barbera taste like?
Barbera often tastes of sour cherry, red plum, blackberry, violet, liquorice, dried herbs and a touch of spice. Its acidity is usually high, giving the wine a lively, mouth-watering feel, while the tannins are generally softer than in Nebbiolo or Aglianico.Unoaked styles are juicy, direct and fruit-focused. Oak-aged Barbera can be fuller and darker, with notes of vanilla, toast, cocoa or sweet spice, but the best examples keep the grape''s natural freshness at the centre.

Where does Barbera come from?
Barbera is strongly associated with Piemonte in north-west Italy. Barbera d''Asti and Barbera d''Alba are among the best-known names, showing different balances of fruit, acidity, body and ageing style.The grape is also planted in Lombardy, Emilia-Romagna and other regions, and it has travelled to countries such as the United States, Argentina and Australia. Still, its clearest identity remains tied to the hills and food culture of Piemonte.
Which styles of Barbera are there?
Fresh Barbera is usually medium-bodied, bright and unoaked, with cherry fruit and a juicy finish. These wines are easy to enjoy young and are excellent with everyday Italian cooking.More ambitious Barbera can be richer, lower-yielding and matured in oak, giving extra depth and structure. Some wines are polished and modern, while others remain savoury and traditional, but acidity is the thread that keeps Barbera energetic.
What food pairs with Barbera?
Barbera is one of the great red wines for tomato-based dishes. Pair it with pizza, pasta al pomodoro, lasagne, ragù, grilled sausages, roast pork, burgers, mushrooms and hard cheeses.Its acidity handles rich sauces and melted cheese, while its moderate tannin avoids overwhelming food. Slightly fuller Barbera also works with braised meats, barbecue and herb-seasoned roasts.
