Overview:
De La Terra Barbera is a distinctive and elegant wine from the winemaking venture of Tony and Kaye Prichard, located on the Taihape Road in Hastings. The name "de la terre" translates to "of the earth," a nod to both the unique soils of their vineyards and the earth brick construction of their winery and cellar door. Specialising in small parcels of unique wines, de la Terra's Barbera is a perfect example of their dedication to creating refined, less common varietals in New Zealand. Originating from the famed Italian region of Piedmont, this Barbera brings a fresh and dynamic take on a classic style.
Tasting Notes:
The Barbera showcases a vibrant and fruit-forward character, with ripe berry notes at the forefront. Subtle herb and tobacco undertones add depth, creating a wine that is both lively and layered. Often described as a "fruity version of Pinot Noir" or a "Pinot on speed," this Barbera offers a unique expression that is both bold and refined. Its balance of rich fruit and soft, herbaceous elements makes it a perfect choice for those seeking something a little different. Ideal for pairing with a variety of dishes, this wine invites discovery with every sip.
