Michele Chiarlo
LaCourt NIZZA RISERVA
2017 · Red · Piemonte · Italy
Old-vine Barbera from a single crus in Nizza—aged 30 months in wood plus 18 in bottle—delivering velvety black cherry, cocoa, and coffee with silken tannins that sing even in a drought-stressed 2017.
Food Pairing
Chargrilled striploin steak
Classic cheeseburger · Beef birria
High acidity and silky tannins cut through rich fats in red meats and aged cheeses; the wine's earthy, balsamic notes complement game and mushroom dishes, while its freshness balances savory stews
