Pietro Barbero works Barbera in Asti, the heart of Piemonte's rolling hills. The region's clay and limestone soils give the grape its characteristic structure—dark fruit, bracing acidity, and tannins that age well. The winery's focus is narrow and deliberate: three Barbera d'Asti expressions, each capturing the varietal's range. Edizione I Vigne di Vignassa Barbera d'Asti Superiore sits at the top of the range, followed by the Verlenga and Barlet bottlings. Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast have rated across the portfolio. Barbera, often overshadowed by its Piemontese neighbors, deserves attention here—these are wines built on the grape's natural vigor and mineral spine.
