Description
A rich and well-balanced Piedmont wine
The estate
Located in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, Produttori del Barbaresco was founded in 1958 by the priest of the village of Barbaresco. In fact, in order to protect the small local estates and perpetuate their know-how, he decided to unite the holdings of nineteen small producers by merging them into a common estate. The wines of Produttori del Barbaresco are renowned for their elegance, full-bodied character and wide range of aromas.
The vineyard
