Whether made into Barbaresco or Barolo in its Ital ian home of Piemonte, Nebbiolo produces elegant, age-worthy reds with powerful acid and tannic structures. These are just the qualities needed for braising short ribs; they also make these wines deli cious accompaniments to the dish, with added notes of tar, rose petals and herbs behind the black fruit.
