In her words
Barbera is one of Italy's most widely planted grape varieties and produces wonderfully juicy, vibrant wines.
But if you want to experience Barbera at its best, look for Barbera d'Alba.
This is a wonderful example of Barbera d'Asti aged for 12 months in a blend of Slavonian oak and French oak barrels, full of red and blue berry fruits, great acidity with a savoury finish.
