*November Producer Spotlight*

Named after the appellation, this 100% Barbera is pulled from vines ranging from 20-70 years old. The grapes undergo delicate pressing with some whole berries, aged in large oak casks for 6 months and another 18 months in bottle. The highest expression of Barbera that reflects its terroir, this red wine has rich aromas of dark fruits, balsamic, and mint, with a rounded palate, vibrant acidity, and a long finish. This wine sings alongside slow-braised beef short ribs, grilled meats, savory pastas, and mushroom risotto. The label showcases the flight of a butterfly which mirrors the delicate elegance of Nizza.

Frasca

The Frasca family's love of Piemonte and its world-renowned wines was the inspiration to return to Italy with the desire to produce elegant, terroir-expressive wine in Nizza Monferrato. An introduction to winemaker Matteo Gerbi was the spark that turned this vision into reality. Born in Asti, Matteo’s vast experience in prestigious Langhe wineries helped forge a clear path, sharing the family’s journey from the very first steps. Today, Matteo leads a passionate team from the vineyards to the cellar, following the original inspiration with eyes to the future. The Frasca winery consists of 22 hectares of vineyards, embracing the municipalities of Nizza Monferrato, Agliano Terme and Moasca, where they have become celebrated for their beautiful expressions of Barbera, Freisa, Grignolino, Riesling and Arneis.
