The Giacomo Conterno "Francia" Barbera 2022 is a remarkable expression of Barbera from the esteemed Francia vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba, one of Piedmont’s most iconic sites. While the vineyard is more widely recognized for its legendary Barolo wines, Conterno's Francia Barbera is a highly regarded bottling that showcases the potential of Barbera when grown in such a prestigious terroir. The 2022 vintage offers vibrant aromas of red berries, black cherries, and a touch of spice, along with subtle earthy and mineral notes that reflect the vineyard’s distinct characteristics. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with a bright acidity that is typical of Barbera but elevated by the depth and complexity imparted by the Francia vineyard’s terroir. The wine also exhibits well-integrated tannins and a long, clean finish. Giacomo Conterno’s dedication to traditional, low-intervention winemaking shines through in this Barbera, making the 2022 Francia a wine of exceptional quality, capable of both early enjoyment and further development with time. It is an elegant and sophisticated expression of one of Italy’s most beloved grape varieties.
