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 Montefico 2011 is a notable single-vineyard Nebbiolo from Piedmont, celebrated for its structure and longevity. Sourced from the historic Montefico MGA, this wine undergoes traditional vinification, aging in large Slavonian botti for over four years before release. The 2011 vintage, characterized by a warm and early harvest, presents a powerful profile featuring dark cherry, plum, and blackberry, complemented by nuances of tobacco and spices. A balanced mouthfeel showcases herbal and menthol notes, enhancing its complexity. This full-bodied wine is both bright and vivid, promising an exceptional drinking experience for decades to come.
