Barbera d'Alba DOC

Cordero Di Montezemolo's Barbera d'Alba DOC is a benchmark expression of Piedmont's signature red varietal. The 2022 vintage displays the characteristic medium-full body and moderate tannin structure that defines quality Barbera, with dominant red cherry and dark plum fruit on the nose and palate. Supporting notes of spice and subtle oak frame the wine without overwhelming its primary fruit character, while emerging tertiary earth and tobacco hints suggest modest aging potential.

This is a versatile, food-friendly red suited to Italian cuisine, grilled meats, and mushroom-forward dishes. The balance of acidity and tannin makes it approachable in youth while rewarding brief cellaring.
