Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of wines are Piedmont known for?
Piedmont, a name that resonates profoundly within the wine connoisseur's ear, is primarily celebrated for its powerful, tannic red wines, particularly those derived from the Nebbiolo grape. Barolo and Barbaresco, often termed the "King and Queen" of Italian wines, are the most eminent representations of Nebbiolo. These wines, known for their depth, complexity, and aging potential, exhibit aromas of tar, roses, and red cherries. But it's not just about Nebbiolo in Piedmont. The region also yields beautiful wines from Barbera and Dolcetto grapes—fruity, more approachable reds that are perfect for everyday drinking. Moreover, Piedmont is recognized for its white Moscato d'Asti, a lightly sparkling, sweet wine, and the dry, effervescent Gavi made from the Cortese grape.

Where are Piedmont wines made?
Piedmont wines hail from the northwestern corner of Italy, bordered by the Alps to the north and west. Its name, meaning "foot of the mountains", aptly describes its topography—hill-covered terrains that nestle at the base of towering peaks. The region benefits from a continental climate, characterized by cold winters and warm summers, ideal for ripening grapes to perfection. The Langhe and Roero areas, in particular, are the heartbeats of Piedmontese wine production, with many vineyards situated on the steep, south-facing slopes, capturing optimum sunlight.

What are the best Piedmont wines?
While "best" often hinges on individual palates, the most acclaimed wines from Piedmont are undeniably Barolo and Barbaresco. These wines, both birthed from the Nebbiolo grape, are known for their robust structure, profound depth, and potential for aging. They mature gracefully, developing nuanced flavors over the years. But beyond these titans, wines like Barbera d'Alba or d'Asti offer juicy and vibrant flavors, while Dolcetto wines bring forth softer, fruit-forward profiles. For white wine enthusiasts, Gavi and Arneis are splendid Piedmontese offerings, presenting fresh and aromatic characteristics.

Are Piedmont wines affordable?
Piedmont offers a spectrum of wines that cater to varied budgets. Iconic wines like aged Barolo or a rare vintage Barbaresco can command premium prices, especially from renowned producers or exceptional years. However, the region is also home to a plethora of wines that are both high-quality and pocket-friendly. Barbera, Dolcetto, and even some younger Nebbiolo wines provide exceptional value for their price, making it feasible for enthusiasts to savor a taste of Piedmont without burning a hole in their wallets. As with all wine regions, exploring and discovering lesser-known producers or sub-regions often yields delightful finds at attractive price points.
