Tasting Notes: The 2016 Produttori Barbaresco exudes class and pedigree right from the start. Loaded with density and power, not to mention pure Nebbiolo fruit with classic notes of red cherries, licorice and tobacco, this is an epic Barbaresco.
Estate History: Produttori del Barbaresco is the famous co-operative founded in the basement of a church in 1958. At the time, farmers did not have the access to winery equipment and much of the Nebbiolo grown was sold in bulk or used to make simple wines sold locally. In 1958, the priest of the village of Barbaresco, recognizing that the only way the small properties could survive was by joining their efforts, gathered together nineteen small growers and founded the Produttori del Barbaresco. The first three vintages were made in the church basement, then in the winery built across the square where the Produttori is still located.
