Wine Details
Lot 760 blooms with terroir, framed by tart cherries, spiced rhubarb, peppered florals, and red clay. Perfectly juicy on entry, with cherry and soft leather riding exceptional acidity across the palate – a food wine through and through. The finish is lengthy and dry, with soft, perfectly integrated tannins full of earthy goodness and cherry flecked umami.

Despite being most famous for its Nebbiolo offerings, Piedmont’s #1 most planted and widely produced red wine is actually Barbera. A super drinkable, robust, versatile and food-friendly wine with no need for extended cellaring before hitting its peak, the Barbera produced here is the everyday wine of the Italian people (when they’re not drinking Chianti from Tuscany), and is consumed just about everywhere at all times of the day.
Produced from DOCG vineyards in the heart of the Asti region of Piedmont - if you tried Lot 710 last year, this offering has a bit more structure and more mellow acidity – probably a reflection of a slightly different harvest time.

Very Nice
I wish I would have tasted this earlier. Great right out of the bottle. No decanting really needed. Opened this up for a nice Chicago Pizza and it was literally the best complement to the cheese and sausage pan pizza we ordered. Nice acidity and fruit forward flavor with a medium finish and body. Would have paired well with any Italian dish. So sorry it is out. Glad I have two bottles.

Good value Italian
Love trying Italian varietals. This one left us wanting a little more, but was definitely a good value.
