Braida has elevated Barbera to a different standard and it has done it through site selection but also through his iconic style where wines have more layers, elegance and depth. The Montebruna goes 12 months in large oak barrels and when opened it needs time to stretch its legs. Only after few hours you'll get the best. 15% in alchol that you don't feel on the palate. Round, elegant and mouthfilling.

Drinks like a mongrel of brunello and pinot, with the posture of Nebbiolo. Intense black cherry fruit, tightly knight with grilled herbs/smoke. Excellent minerality/texture on the finish (keeping the 15% alc. in check) and deceptively integrated tannins.

This is just what Barbera is all about. There are some producers in Piemonte that knows how to do it, often we find them in Asti. If you treat this grape with the expositions it demands and let the vines grow old you get wines of beautiful fruit that comes with the perfect acidity and structure.
