The winery
Viberti is a family estate founded in 1923 in Vergne, Barolo, when Cavalier Antonio Viberti began vinifying Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo for guests of his Locanda del Buon Padre. Today Claudio Viberti, third generation, manages over 26 hectares across the Langhe with a team focused on single-vineyard expression. The estate produces Barolo from an assemblage of ten MGAs as well as single-vineyard wines from Monvigliero and San Lorenzo di Verduno. Recent investments include Timorasso in the Colli Tortonesi, Dolcetto at Dogliani and Barbera between Montegrosso d'Asti and Agliano.

Description
100% Barbera d'Alba DOC Superiore from the Bricco Airoli pre-phylloxera parcel within the Bricco delle Viole MGA in Barolo, average vine age 90-100 years, worked entirely by hand at very low yields. Hand-harvested in mid-September in 20kg crates, open-cap fermentation with two daily pump-overs, spontaneous malolactic at controlled temperature, 22-24 months in untoasted Allier oak vats of 50-52hl. Ruby with violet hints; intense sour cherry, ripe fruit and spice on the nose. Opulent yet balanced…
Region
Piemonte
The Langhe and Monferrato hills produce Nebbiolo of extraordinary depth and precision. Barolo and Barbaresco anchor premium lists; Barbera and Dolcetto offer immediate character. Arneis and Timorasso are gaining fast international momentum among sommeliers.
