The Produttori del Barbaresco consists of 50 vine growing families working 250 acres of vineyards. There had been a co-operative in Barbaresco between the mid-1890s and 1930, but it had been closed down by a fascist government. In 1958 the local priest realised that co-operation was the only way for smallholders to survive and he founded the Produttori with nineteen families. The first three vintages were made in the church crypt, thereafter across the square in a winery built for the purpose.

"The 2017 Barbaresco shows just how appealing this vintage can be. In 2017, the warm, dry growing season gave the Barbaresco an extra kick of richness that fills out its frame and adds so much immediacy. Sweet red berry fruit, cinnamon, rose petal and mint are open in the glass, but it is the wine’s seductive radiance that wins the day. Pora, Ovello, Montestefano, Muncagota and Rio Sordo are the main vineyards used for the straight Barbaresco. The 2017 is such an inviting and expressive wine. Don’t miss it! 94/100.” Antonio Galloni
All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab.
Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
