Bright. Juicy. A modern Barbera that speaks with clarity.
From the rolling hills of Asti in Piedmont — a region known as the spiritual home of Barbera — comes Fabe, a vibrant, fruit-driven red from boutique winery Cadgal. With its bright acidity and supple texture, this wine delivers the purest, most joyful expression of the Barbera grape.
Aged briefly in oak to round out the edges while preserving freshness, Fabe is a wine that feels alive in the glass — bursting with red berries, soft spice, and the kind of lift that keeps you coming back for another sip.
Why we love it:
Barbera often plays a supporting role in Piedmont, but Fabe puts it centre stage — and the performance is quietly brilliant. It’s expressive, polished, and honest, without trying too hard. A perfect bottle for Irish drinkers looking for something easy to love but far from ordinary — whether paired with food or poured by the fire on a slow evening.

Colour
Deep ruby with violet reflections.
Nose
Ripe cherry, wild strawberry, violet, and a touch of cinnamon.

Medium-bodied and juicy with fresh red fruit, hints of cocoa and pepper, and a smooth, balanced finish.

A wonderfully versatile red that pairs well with everyday favourites:
- Tomato-based pasta dishes or pizza
- Chargrilled sausages or pork
- Baked aubergine or roasted red peppers
- Irish cheeses like Durrus or Gubbeen
- Antipasti platters and midweek dinners
It’s the kind of wine that makes even a Tuesday feel like a celebration.
