Really enjoyable wine. Definitely one of the best Barbera’s I’ve had. Blackberry and cherry with solid acidity. Fine with cacio e pepe. Sorry it’s gone!

Nizza was a sub zone of Barbera d’Asti and elevated to DOCG in 2014.

The nose shows ripe cherry, blackberry, and violet, accented by subtle spice and a hint of mocha. The palate is medium-to-full bodied yet concentrated, with lightly candied fruits and supple tannins. Needs food.
