Description
Neive is one of the villages of the Barbaresco zone, and Castello di Neive makes its Barbera d'Alba from that hill country. Barbera is the everyday red of Piedmont, dark in color, low in tannin and high in acidity. The Superiore designation on this 2022 calls for more alcohol and more aging than the basic wine.
Acidity does the work at the table, cutting through tomato sauces, agnolotti and salumi that would flatten a softer red. A short time in a decanter is optional. It drinks well now and will hold for a few more years.
