Eraldo Viberti, Barolo DOCG, Piedmont, Italy
This is a small family farm of about six hectares divided into three different kind of production: two hectares dedicated to Dolcetto, two to Barbera and two to nebbiolo grapes for Barolo wine. All the vineyards are located in La Morra, in the little village of Santa Maria where the cellar, called Prima, is situated. Up until 1987 Eraldo gave all the grapes to the local cooperative wine growers’ association.
Since 1987 vintage, he has started to produce his own wine. The starting point of this great adventure is based on Eraldo’s parents’ values: respect for the land and the work linked to tradition.
This is serious Barolo - intense, full bodied tannic and persistent with aromas of wild berries and sweet spices. Ages in barriques for at least 24 months. Great with stewed meats, game and aged cheeses.
