Barbaresco Wine Pairing

Barbaresco is made from the nebbiolo grape in Piedmont, in the northern region of Italy. Barbaresco, a medium- to full-bodied red wine, can be sweet or dry and usually has low acidity. Barbaresco's berry and ripe red fruit aromas, coupled with the flavours of tar and licorice, make Barbaresco a lovely match for deeply flavored meat dishes such as beef, game, venison and chicken.
