Tiamo Barbera

Tiamo (which means 'I love you' in Italian – already a good start) creates organic wines that deliver authentic Italian character at prices that won't break the heart or bank account. Their Barbera is a perfect everyday red that reminds us why this variety is beloved at dinner tables throughout northern Italy.

Barbera is sometimes overshadowed by Piedmont's more famous Nebbiolo-based wines, but locals know it as the perfect weeknight wine – juicy, versatile, and refreshing enough to pair with a wide range of foods. Tiamo's version captures this everyday appeal while adding the benefits of organic farming and careful winemaking.

It's the kind of honest, unpretentious wine that doesn't demand contemplation but rewards it nonetheless – much like the best kinds of relationships.
