Nizza Cipressi DOCG

Michele Chiarlo's Nizza Cipressi is a single-varietal Barbera from Piedmont's prestigious Nizza DOCG, a subregion of Barbaresco known for producing structured, age-worthy reds. The 2019 vintage displays the classic Barbera profile: ripe red cherry and plum on the nose, supported by black pepper spice and herbaceous notes. Medium-high tannins and balanced acidity provide backbone and food-friendliness, while earthy undertones and dried-fruit complexity suggest careful winemaking and potential for short-term cellaring. A versatile table wine suited to Italian cuisine, grilled meats, and rich pasta dishes.
