Guido Berta Barbera d'Asti

Cascina Guido Berta sits in the heart of what producers call the "Golden Triangle" of the Asti appellation, in San Marzano Oliveto — a village recognized as one of Piedmont's finest addresses for Barbera. Guido Berta farms his 35-year-old vines using sustainable lotta integrata practices and is actively converting to full organic certification. The Barbera d'Asti is everything this grape should be: garnet with brilliant violet reflections, a nose of red berries, cherries, and fresh floral notes, and a full, lively palate with bright acidity, soft tannins, and earthy, mineral depth. An archetypal Piedmontese table wine — vivid, drinkable, and honest.

Food Pairing: Pasta al ragù, pizza, grilled sausages, braised rabbit, risotto, antipasto misto.
