Description

Barbera d’Asti DOC 2001 Terre del Barbera is a red wine from Asti, Piedmont, Italy, produced by Terre del Barbera, a winery committed to expressing the elegance and freshness of Barbera grapes from the Asti hills. This 2001 vintage showcases the vibrant fruit character, lively acidity, and refined structure that define Barbera d’Asti, while also reflecting the wine’s gentle maturation over two decades.

Tasting Notes:
The wine displays a deep ruby color with garnet highlights along the rim. The bouquet is expressive and layered, with aromas of red cherries, plums, and hints of raspberries, complemented by subtle tertiary notes of leather, cedar, gentle spices, and soft earthy undertones. Aeration brings forward delicate balsamic and mineral nuances, enhancing complexity and depth.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied with smooth, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity that balances the ripe fruit flavors. The finish is long and elegant, highlighting dried red fruits, gentle spice, and subtle earthy tones, reflecting both careful maturation and the expressive character of Barbera d’Asti from Terre del Barbera’s vineyards.

Serving & Food Pairing:
Serve at around 16–18°C.

Pairs beautifully with roasted or braised meats, game, risottos, pasta with hearty sauces, and medium-aged cheeses. Its refined structure also allows it to be enjoyed on its own as a contemplative tasting wine.

Producer:
Terre del Barbera is celebrated for producing wines that combine elegance, authenticity, and age-worthy potential. The 2001 Barbera d’Asti demonstrates the winery’s dedication to highlighting the expressive fruit and balanced acidity of Barbera from the Asti hills.
