Friday Wines Tasting - The Wines from Italian - Dezzani

Dezzani is a family owned company and was founded in 1934 by Luigi Dezzani, a genuine Piedmontese “Barberist" Today, the Dezzani family owns vines in the Monferrato Hills (where the great Piedmonntese wines are grown) that are located in the province of Asti in the Piedmont region. Dezzani also owns other vineyards in the province of Alessandria and Cuneo.Piedmont has been famous for winemaking for thousands of years. Piedmont means “at the foot of the mountain” (the Alps). This region is located in the Northwest of Italy and is renowned for its red wines including the famous Barolo. The lighter red wines produced are produced from Barbera grapes.

The Barbera is the grape used in over 50% of Piedmontese vineyards. Barbera is Italy’s most common grapes. This grape produces deep purple wines with high level of acidity but with plenty of fruits. In Italy, when family business like Dezzani makes Barbera, the character of the grape is likely to be pronounced.
