drink nice(r): barolo vs barbaresco

when: friday 3/19 @ 6pm est

what: barolo and barbaresco are, arguably, italy’s most prestigious wine regions. however, just how different are the two? to give you an idea, barolo has long been considered the ‘king’ of piedmont, while barbaresco, the ‘queen.’ while this old adage is antiquated (and incorrect for several reasons), the general sentiment rings true for most. we will compare and contrast both in an effort to understand each village in its own right.
