91 WA "The 2015 Barbera d'Alba SorĂŹ del Drago is a terrific wine with a bright and fruity personality that nicely reflects the best characteristics of this warm vintage. The wine opens to dark fruit layering, with black fruit tones that segue to succulent plum, spice and sweet tobacco. The results are elegant and exuberant at the same time." . . .

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
