2019 Seghesio Barbera d’Alba Superiore La Chiesa

2019 Seghesio Barbera d’Alba Superiore La Chiesa  is a fresh and straightforward Barbera without strong tannins. Seghesio only has 3 ha of fields with Barbera, but here they manage to produce a really delicious Barbera that has good body, a nice and intense red color and a fine and balanced aftertaste with notes of wild berries and jam. The wine can be drunk young, but we know from the family that it can also be stored well for a number of years

Friendly and approachable, Barbera produces wines in a wide range of styles, from youthful, fresh and fruity to serious, structured and age-worthy. Piedmontis the most famous source of Barbera; those from Asti and Alba garner the most praise. Barbera actually can adapt to many climates and enjoys success in some New World regions. Somm Secret—In the past it wasn’t common or even accepted to age Barbera in oak but today both styles—oaked and unoaked—abound and in fact most Piedmontese producers today produce both styles.
