Piedmont: Top Values and Everyday Gems

 Drinking top-notch, artisan Piedmont wines doesn’t have to cost a fortune. While prices for Barolos and Barbarescos continue to escalate, the best Dolcettos, Barberas and Langhe Nebbiolos deliver tons of Piedmont character and pedigree at far more accessible prices. That is especially true of entry-level wines at the region’s best addresses. These are some of the finest Piedmont values I tasted this year. Most of the wines in this article retail for $25 a bottle or less.
