La Court from Michele Chiarlo follows the DOCG Nizza created in 2014 and previously a subzone of DOCG Barbera d'Asti. This is supported by the images in this CT entry. The La Court wine seems to be a Barbera d'Asti Superiore for all vintages before 2014 and a Nizza Riserva for vintages after 2014, according to the images in CT. One image is falsely identified as 2007 and is actually 2015. For vintage 2014 itself there is no image.
A quick check reveals other wines, from different producers, identified as Barbera d'Asti Nizza in recent vintages. For vintages after 2014 this should no longer be valid. One example is the Prunotto Costamiole entry for several vintages.
The issue of Nizza being a seperate DOCG and no longer a subzone of Barbera d'Asti was brieffly touched upon in the forum back in 2018 by PiemontePerSempre.
This may be something to look into.

I fixed the Ciarlo.

A large scale fix is either move eveything to Nizza or link each wine one by one back to the BdA SN. I am not super keen on the former and the latter is a huge project. I manage these as they come up on more popular wines. I will likely move everything over at some point down the road.
