Description

In Monferrato, in Sessame in the province of Acqui Terme, stands the Riboli family winery, in one of the most vocated areas for the production of Barbera. Founded in the early 2000s, they are not the classic winery with generations of history behind them; in fact, they bought 6 hectares of land with an old farmhouse, one hectare of Moscato and nine rows of Barbera inside. Today it is run by Marco Riboli together with his sons Roberto and Riccardo, they went from being grape sellers in the early years to being producers with their first label released in 2013. During the new decade they have decided to aim higher and higher by planting and expanding production, also beginning a true enhancement of Barbera trying to bring out its potential in various ages from the youngest to the most aged version. A traditional and young matrix is followed, selections and thinning in the vineyard, vinification without invasive interventions, aging in used wood barrels and long rests in the bottle depending on the vintage to extrapolate the purity of the details. Authentic, territorial and innovative!
