The 2021 Prunotto Fiulot Barbera d’Asti DOCG is a vibrant and approachable expression of Barbera from Piedmont, crafted by the renowned Prunotto estate (Antinori family). Named “Fiulot” (meaning “young man” in local dialect), it reflects a youthful, fresh style focused on purity of fruit and drinkability. The nose is bright and expressive, showing red cherry, raspberry and plum, with hints of violet and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with lively acidity and a juicy core of red fruit, supported by soft, well-integrated tannins. The finish is fresh, smooth and clean, emphasizing vibrancy and balance.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a benchmark everyday Barbera—fresh, food-friendly and highly versatile. It’s perfect for customers who enjoy bright, fruit-driven reds with soft structure. Drink now or over the next 3–5 years. Ideal with pasta, pizza, grilled meats or casual Italian dishes.
