Braida has elevated Barbera to a different standard and it has done it through site selection but also through his iconic style where wines have more layers, elegance and depth.
The Montebruna goes 12 months in large oak barrels and when opened it needs time to stretch its legs.
Only after few hours you'll get the best. 15% in alchol that you don't feel on the palate.

Bright with tart cherries, high acidity and light body, very low tannin and dark chocolate with blueberries. Great with pizza and butternut squash and even curry. Fantastic every day wine — 6 years ago

This is the most iconic barbera in Italy
The story of the label is very curious
Single site hill where a lady had a house.
She was nicknamed "Uccellone" meaning big bird due to her prominent nose that resembled a bird beak. Nonetheless "Uccellone" in italian slang also mean "big penis"...
The local priest was horrified by this label and accused Braida of pushing the boundaries too much. The answer was from him to produce another wine honouring the priest called Bricco della Bigotta(Bigot).
The wine is big, it goes in large oak for 12 months plus 12 months in the bottle before release and needs decanting. Super smooth, super complex, this is a wine for blue cheese or meditation.
It keeps giving you different shade every time you swirl it.
Personally i prefer other style of barbera, but it is a super interesting wine with a lot of history too. — 7 months ago

Really nice Barbera, although a bit young. Found this at Toutant, didn’t finish it, so we brought a bit home. Turned out to put a nice finish on a pot of goulash. — 9 months ago
