Viberti Pubblicano Dolcetto Dogliani 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.

Dogliani is a small town in the southern part of the Barolo production area. The name “Publican” refers to an ancient anecdote of the country, when it was absolutely forbidden to harvest grapes that had not yet reached full ripeness. For those who did not comply with the ordinance, the penalty was confiscation of the entire harvest by “The Publican,” or tax collector.

From Viberti’s new vineyard, historic Valdibà in Dogliani, this Dolcetto is truly expression of its soil characterized by calcareous clay and limestone.
