Great Italian Wines: BARBARESCO

Barbaresco is truly one of the great Italian wines. Just like Barolo, Barbaresco wines are made in Piedmont winemaking region from Nebbiolo grape variety. In this video I will talk about the Nebbiolo grape, about the Barbaresco DOCG winemaking area and how Angelo Gaja put it on the map, how it is different from Barolo, as well as recommended food pairings.

[ULlisting]

I love your wine videos. You are a wonderful guide and a pleasure to follow. Cheers!

I have a 1974 Produtorri I plan to open for my twin daughters’ 50th birthday. Hope it’s still good.

Perfect video, Thanks for this..been wanting to make the jump to bolder wines like Barbaresco and Barbera to start with..Must get variation from Sangiovese which I may say is quite a lot in my cellar already.

Hello Agnes... As always, enjoyed your well designed and enthusiastically delivered Video. You always leave me (and my wine group here in California) wanting to hear more. Hope you plan to gradually extend the video 2 or 3 more minutes... and share with us a recommendation or 2 (or 3) about say a top wine bottle... or 2(e.g. Barbareso in this case) and a top value bottle ... or 2. Could benefit from your expertise and taste. Keep up the good work !!!

I hope you make someday a video of Valdobbiadene! The prosecco Hills 😊 🎉

Hello there! Since you're in the wine world so to speak, I was wondering if possibly you have had the possitiblity to taste the new Produttori del Barbarescos latest release?

Thinking of their 2016 Don Fiorino riserva that is.
Considering how rare it is for the Produttori to release new cuveés I'm personally really excited 🙂

[MarioMariaMario]

Lol did they eventually let you in at Gaja? 1:52

Hi, Agnese.
I have a bottle of 2013 Sfursat by Nino Negri.
How do you think, is it time to drink that?

[svenprante]

Great Video! Can you please tell me the name of the wine you tasted in the video?

[michaelsleutz]

Are there any other regions besides Barolo and Barbaresco that use the Nebbiolo grape as their main grape?

[BlairRUM]

Can’t agree that Nebbiolo is the king or queen of wines.
That title MUST go to Pinot Noir from Burgundy.
Sorry luv…..

Cool it with the constant hand gestures. It's distracting.
