With a singular concentration on the Piedmont region of Italy, The Piedmont Guy has championed a select group of passionate winemaking families for nearly a decade. Ercole is our line of everyday wines upholding our commitment to honoring the work of the unsung heroes of Italy—the grape growers themselves.

Up for bid is one bottle of 2020 Ercole Barbera Del Monferrato D.O.C.

Many folks know the Barbera grape for its bright acidity, and this wine is no exception to the rule. Far less known is the fact that Monferrato’s most prestigious zones are dedicated to Barbera plantings. Typically planted to southern exposure, these vineyards yield wines of great depth and balance. Most experts have traced the origin of Barbera to the hills of Monferrato.
