Produttori del Barbaresco

Produttori del Barbaresco is a well-respected and highly-regarded winery located in the Piedmont region of Italy. Founded in 1958, it is a cooperative of 54 small, family-owned vineyards that work together to produce some of the finest Barbaresco wines in the world.

Barbaresco is a small appellation in the Piedmont region, known for its prestigious and complex Nebbiolo-based red wines. The region is located in the Langhe hills, just south of the town of Alba, and is often compared to its neighboring appellation, Barolo. However, Barbaresco wines are typically more approachable and elegant compared to the more tannic and powerful Barolos.

The Produttori del Barbaresco winery is situated in the heart of the appellation, in the town of Barbaresco. The cooperative's vineyards cover over 250 acres, with each grower responsible for their own piece of land. This allows for a diverse range of terroirs and microclimates to be represented in their wines, resulting in a complex and nuanced expression of the Barbaresco terroir.

The winery's flagship wine is the Barbaresco Riserva, made from the best grapes of the vintage and aged for a minimum of five years before release. This wine is a true representation of the traditional style of Barbaresco, with its tannic structure, elegant fruit flavors, and aromas of violets, tar, and licorice. In addition to the Riserva, the winery also produces a Barbaresco DOCG and a Langhe Nebbiolo, both of which offer exceptional value for their quality.

Produttori del Barbaresco is committed to sustainable viticulture and minimal intervention in the winemaking process. They use traditional techniques such as extended maceration and aging in large Slavonian oak barrels to preserve the character and integrity of the grapes
