Piedmont

Piedmont wines sit among Italy’s most respected and age-worthy, shaped by alpine influences, historic vineyard sites and a deep connection to place. This north-western region is best known for Nebbiolo, the noble grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco — wines defined by haunting aromatics, firm yet refined tannins and an ability to evolve beautifully over time. Classic flavours of red cherry, rose and savoury earth give these wines both structure and finesse.

Beyond Nebbiolo, Piedmont offers remarkable diversity. Barbera delivers brightness and energy, with generous fruit balanced by natural acidity, while Dolcetto provides softer, approachable styles with dark fruit and gentle spice. Indigenous white varieties such as Arneis and Cortese add further depth, producing wines that are aromatic, precise and quietly complex.
