Vietti Barbera d’Asti Trevìe 2023 is made entirely from Barbera grown in vineyards around Asti, including fruit from La Crena in Agliano Terme.

Red cherry, sour cherry and raspberry are joined by white pepper, subtle mint, mineral notes and a touch of vanilla. The palate is medium-bodied and fresh, with Barbera’s naturally bright acidity, soft tannins and a savory finish.

The wine spends about a year divided between stainless steel, barriques and larger barrels, adding texture and complexity without taking attention away from the fresh red fruit and acidity.

I like this style of Barbera because it is energetic and particularly useful at the table. There is plenty of ripe fruit, but the acidity keeps the wine lively, while the soft tannins make it approachable even when young.

Food Pairing: Pair with pizza, pasta with ragù, roasted pork, sausages, grilled chicken, mushroom dishes, charcuterie, or semi-aged cheeses.

Serve around 58–62°F.
