Juicy, joyful, and just the right amount of wild, this is a total crowd-pleaser! Bursting with ripe cherries, plum compote, and a dash of spice, it’s all about bright fruit and vibrant acidity, with a silky texture that keeps you coming back for more. There’s a whisper of balsamic and a flicker of graphite grounding the fun, but this one’s all about lift and liveliness.

La Boidina is shaking things up in Piedmont’s wine scene, blending old-school winemaking with a fresh, modern twist. Based in Monferrato, Gavi, and the Tortona Hills, this dynamic winery is all about crafting wines that truly capture the essence of their terroir—without the stuffy traditions. Their lineup is as exciting as their approach. The Barbera d'Asti DOCG 'Ironia' spends nine months chilling in steel tanks before hitting the bottle, keeping things fresh and lively. Then there’s 'Empatia', a Nizza DOCG that takes a luxurious 14-month nap in French oak, followed by six months of bottle aging for extra depth and complexity. Chardonnay lovers? You’ll love 'Armonia', their Piemonte Chardonnay DOC, which gets its rich, mineral-driven personality from fermentation in tonneaux. Beyond the bottle, La Boidina’s branding is sleek, fun, and anything but predictable—designed for those who appreciate great wine without the pomp. And if you fancy a visit, their vineyard tours and tastings make for a top-notch experience. Great wine, a bit of fun, and no pretension? Sounds like a winner.
