Red, White and Brew Here at Boone’s Wines and Spirits, we just received several delicious new Italian wines. So, I (Jeff Anderson) will be focusing on Italy for the next few Red, White and Brew articles. The five major grapes of Piedmont are Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, Barbera, Arneis and Moscato Bianco. I will discuss all five. This week, let’s start with Arneis and Barbera. Typically, Arneis is a golden straw colored, highly perfumed wine with notes of pears, peaches, almonds and hops. It can be full bodied or lighter with a lively acidity. Barbera is typically a deep ruby red color, full bodied with fresh fruit and has low tannins and a high acidity.
