Piedmont

In northern Italy, Piedmont is home to a number of grape varietals.  Among them is the "noble grape" Nebbiolo.  Grown in several sub-regions, the most popular Nebbiolos hail from Barolo, Barbaresco, Langhe, Gattinara and Nebbiolo d'Alba.    

Barolos and Barbarescos boast delicious notes of cherry, rose petal and spice and thus often called the Burgundies of Italy.  Ageworthy, these wines typically have well balanced structure that allows them to evolve for decades.  Between them, Barolos are often characterized as king and Barbaresco as queen, with the latter often displaying a bit softer and more femanine interpreation of the grape - but ageworthy just the same. 

In addition to Nebbiolo, Piedmont is known for more fruit forward varietals, such Barbera and Dolcetto, which display dark berry and plum flavors.  And, though predominently known for red wine, Piedmont is home to delicious whites such as Gavi (Cortese), Arneis and Chardonnay.
