Viberti La Volta Barolo Riserva DOCG

The story of the Viberti winery begins when Cavalier Antonio Viberti buys the Locanda del Buon Padre. It was the year 1923 when Antonio began to produce wine for the guests of his Locanda in the basement of the Buon Padre.

A limited-production Barolo Riserva produced only in the best vintages from the estate-owned La Volta vineyard.
The grapes coming from the vineyard of the same name, are vinified with a submerged cap, to encourage greater extraction in particular during the first days of fermentation. Depending on the year, the duration of the maceration varies from 14 to 21 days.
A big wine with elegant notes of preserved fruit accented by aromas of spices, underbrush, and licorice.

Sustainable farming.
