In the first 15 minutes of a typical “Bar Rescue” episode, the viewing audience gets treated to a host of obvious red flags: drunken owners, bugs in bottles, or rodents in the kitchen. The parade of awfulness fluctuates between uncomfortable and gross, and it rightly sends host Jon Taffer into an on-screen tizzy. In real life, though, the red flags you might find at a bar can be much more subtle.

When we talk about Piemonte — specifically the southern region and the Langhe hills — we tend to think of Barolo and Barbaresco. These wines are powerful, highly acidic, and full of fruit and aromatics. As discussed last week , when we travel up north to Alto Piemonte, the Nebbiolo grape continues to thrive, but the resulting wines have even more acid, allowing our palates to perceive them as lighter-bodied and less tannic.
