From organically farmed vineyards in the hills around Alba, Lalu brings a light, focused touch to Barbera—eschewing oak and adornment in favor of clarity, acidity, and fruit with a pulse. The 2022 vintage is leaner than plush, led by wild berries, crushed herbs, and a cool, stony finish that gives it real structure.

There’s no syrupy weight, no round sweetness—just high-toned red fruit and bright acidity that makes it endlessly food-friendly. It’s Barbera that plays more like Cru Beaujolais or Langhe Nebbiolo—vibrant, transparent, and driven by place.

Drink it slightly chilled, pair it with anything from pizza to roast chicken, and let it remind you just how much charm this grape can have when handled with restraint.
