In 1894, a wine cooperative was established in Barbaresco as a way to separate the wine district from its supplying relations to Barolo, but during Mussolini’s regime in the 1930s it was shut down. By 1958 the cooperative started back up again, and now Produttori del Barbaresco now has a total of 51 members and controls more than 250 acres of some of the highest-quality Nebbiolo vineyards in the Barbaresco region of Piedmont. Their most popular wine is their flagship bottle which is a Barbaresco known for its reliability and great value. The cooperative also makes nine different single-vineyard riserva Barbarescos from the best vintages to highlight a wide range of styles that the house can produce. Their Langhe Nebbiolo, made from young vines in exemplary Barbaresco-classified vineyards, completes their critically-acclaimed portfolio.
The Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco Riserva Pora 2017 is a distinguished red wine from the Piedmont region, crafted from Nebbiolo grapes sourced from the Pora cru, known for its sandy soil and influence from the Tanaro river. This wine showcases a blend of ripe red cherry, orange peel, and floral notes of rose, complemented by hints of licorice and a touch of saline spice. It is characterized by its silky tannins and balanced acidity, making it approachable yet capable of aging for 10 to 20 years. The wine is produced by a historic cooperative that specializes in single-vineyard Riservas, bottled only in exceptional years and aged for roughly 32 months in large oak casks.
