Lavignone is the name of one of the farmhouses that was built on the property in the 1700s. The wine exhibits classic bright cherry flavors one would expect from Barbera, making it a great companion to rich dishes.
Piedmont is the most "Frenchified" of all Italian wine regions. The long valleys of the Alpine foothills lead to easier travel to France's southern coast and inland than to the rest of Italy. It is perhaps for this reason that the Piedmontese have long practiced the most refined wine traditions of any Italian region. Terroir-based wisdom trickled down from early French masters (monks, typically) to this area.
Known mostly for their reds (but producing some excellent whites,) from the early ripening Dolcetto grape to the lofty, deep reds of Barolo and Barbaresco crafted from the Nebbiolo grape, these wines are clearly crafted using centuries of terroir-based winemaking.

One of my favorite everyday reds! This is a great wine to have stocked up in the house for those "just in case" moments; it's a crowd-pleaser for sure.
