One of the oldest wineries in the town of Barolo, among the first to be founded back in 1923 by Cavalier Antonio Viberti at the Good Father Inn where the first vinifications began. A family with great traditions, they bottled their first label in 1927 kicking off a history of satisfaction where their son Giovanni from 1968 expanded the property by buying land, differentiating the different vineyards and marketing their wines worldwide. Today we have reached the 3rd generation with grandson Claudio who has taken the reins of the winery introducing new cutting-edge techniques, low yields and eco-sustainability so as to increase the quality of the vineyards. They own 21 hectares distributed among some of the best Cru of the appellation such as Monvigliero, Bricco delle viole, Ravera ect. with a good part of the vines of an average age of 30 years in which there are classic Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo and some Chardonnay. A modern and thoughtful vision has been introduced in the winery without neglecting the old teachings, modern technologies such as rotovinificators during vinification so as to shorten the time, use of large truncated barrels for well-defined aromas at the end of aging. All pieces of a puzzle for one of the most celebrated names in the Langa. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Little known as a vineyard in the appellation, it is produced in purity only by the Viberti winery, which has been able to pull out great expressiveness as a cross between the La Morra and Barolo communes. San Pietro is located south of Fossati Cru enjoying a very cool exposure that added to its white sand and marl soils results in pleasant, wrinkled wines. Selection of the most suitable bunches for the Riserva version only which are vinified in steel tanks with the use of the emerged cap for 24 days, after malolactic fermentation there is an aging of 46 months in 50 Hl truncated oak barrels, finally it rests 3 months in steel before being bottled another 12 months. Uncommon Barolo in this form however from the curious surprises, notes of spice and ripe fruit with herbaceous contours on the whole while the palate is vertical in which soft tannins and discreet crispness are savored.<\/p>\n
