What is Barbaresco?
Pronounced bahr bah ress koh. A D.O.C.G. regional red wine produced in the Piedmont region of Italy, specifically in the towns Barbaresco, Neive, and Treiso d’Alba. Characteristics: Barbaresco wines are Nebbiolo grape varietal based, producing dry, rich, powerful, firm tastes with an aroma of spice, pepper, and black cherry. Although dry, Barbaresco wines exhibit a perfumed sweetness. If drunk young the wine tends to be closed with fruity aroma and a spiced, tannic finish. At maturity it opens up and the finish is smooth. Barolo wines are Nebbiolo varietal based and are also produced in the Piedmont region of Italy Barbaresco wines tend to be lighter than the Barolo. Barbaresco wines are thought to be more elegant and refined than Barolo wines. Ageing: Must be aged for 2 years, one of those years in a wood. Riserva Barbaresco must be aged for 3 years, one of those years in a wood. Serving temperature: Best when served at an approximate temperature of 65º F. Food pairings: Game, red meat, veal, poultry, fowl, polenta, fondues, white truffle dishes, and aged cheeses.
