Founded in 1958 by the local priest Don Fiorino Marengo, the Produttori del Barbaresco cooperative has set the global gold standard for cooperative winemaking. This Assortment Case represents the ultimate exploration of the Barbaresco appellation, typically featuring a selection of their nine legendary single-vineyard Riservas—such as Asili, Rabajà, Montestefano, and Ovello—which are only released in exceptional vintages. Made from 100% Nebbiolo, these wines undergo traditional long maceration and aging in large Slavonian oak casks. Because the winemaking recipe is kept identical across all bottlings, this collection serves as a pure, unadulterated masterclass in how subtle differences in soil composition, altitude, and exposure shape the final expression of Piedmont's noble grape.
