Tre Donne, Barbari Nebbiolo D.O.C.
(BAHR-bahr-ee neh-BEE-oh-loh)

 

Tasting Notes: From the incomparable ladies of Tre Donne comes Barbari, meaning “Barbarian,” a delicious ode to the history of Piedmont. The words “Barbera” and “Barbaresco” derive their names from barbarians, which played a big part in local history and linguistics. Made from 100% Nebbiolo, it is a piercingly pure, lovely wine of power and elegance–a combination seemingly so consistently achieved by Tre Donne. This is an exceptional value and a wine not to be missed.
