It always makes sense to have a Barbera in the house—such a versatile wine. The Paolina, from one of my favorite Barbaresco producers, has tons of charming fruit and food-friendly acidity. You can pair this with just about anything, from pizza to burgers, and it makes a great party wine too. Extremely case-worthy! 

This wine comes from the assemblage of different vineyards, creating a fresh that exhibits strong, but soft Barbera characteristics.
