Information:

Viberti Giovanni was founded in the early 1900s when Antonio Viberti purchased the Locanda del Buon Padre with an adjoining vineyard in the village of Vergne, located in the commune of Barolo. Today, grandson Claudio manages the family business, which sources grapes from eight estate cru vineyards in Barolo and two contract cru vineyards in Verduno andMonforte d'Alba.

The Viberti Giovanni Langhe Nebbiolo DOC is made from 100% Nebbiolo sourced from their vineyards across the communes of Barolo, Monforte d'Alba and Verduno.

"Cherry jam, raspberry, floral top note, liquorice root. It’s juicy and red fruited, new leather, cranberry acidity and sweetness, firm and chalky, grainy finish and rosehip tea finish of good length. Very good."  Gary Walsh

"Medium intensity ruby red. Aromas of ripe red fruits, strawberries and cherries. Soft tannin and great drinkability. After the destemming-crushing, maceration and alcoholic fermentation takes place on the skin for 8-10 days in temperature-controlled steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation follows at controlled temperature in steel tanks. Aging takes place for a year in wooden vats with a capacity of 50 hl each. The wine then returns to steel tanks where it completes its maturation for a further year." Viberti
