PRODUCT OVERVIEW/REVIEW:
"Listen to the land; respect its balance." This is the guiding principle of Amistà Winery, which is located in the hills of Monferrato in Italy’s Piedmont region. Its entire production is Nizza DOCG Barbera. The wines are sourced from vineyards that are between 30 and 90 years old. Aiming to be the gateway to Piedmont, the winery is focused on crafting the absolute best barbera in Piedmont. They take a non-interventionist approach to their craft, letting the soil, comprised of sandy marl and clay, determine the quality of the finished wines.
The 2019 Amistà Nizza DOCG is produced from vineyards located in the heart of the best growing area for the appellation: The Bricco di Nizza subzone. The wine is bottled after roughly 12 months of aging (mostly in large cask, although some of the wine is aged in tonneaux and barrique). In order to ensure the highest quality, it is aged in bottle for 6-8 months more than required by the appellation.* Check out the press!
92 points, James Suckling:
"A juicy and round red with berries, orange peel and creamy tannins. Strawberries, too. Medium body, juicy fruit, and a flavorful finish. A barbera with density and freshness. Creamy texture." (8/8/22)
