Giacomo Conterno, Barbera 'Francia' 2021

Barbera doesn’t get better than this. Not only is it made by one of the world’s greatest red winemakers, but it comes from a vineyard that yields the most collectible wines in all of Italy. 

While barbera is generally regarded as a solid pizza wine, this is a more serious proposition. Extended aging, a legendary vineyard, and Roberto Conterno’s classic winemaking yield a bright red with structure and depth typically reserved for the region’s best nebbiolo.
