Azienda Agricola Eraldo Viberti - Barolo Riserva 2005
Founded in 1960, Azienda Agricola Eraldo Viberti farms six hectares of vineyards in the commune of La Morra in Barolo planted to Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto. Since 2018, the estate is certified organic. All vineyard work, from pruning to harvest, is done manually, with only organic fertilizers and no herbicide use (instead, the family uses a manual hoe to control the grasses beneath the vines). Fermentations are carried out in stainless steel and the Barbera and Nebbiolo wines are aged in French oak barriques.
Viberti's Barolo vineyards are in the Crus of Roncaglie and Rocchetevino. The 2005 Barolo Riserva is drinking at its peak: A perfect balance of soft, ripe fruits with all the haunting aromas and flavors expected of a mature Nebbiolo. The tannins and acidity have integrated seamlessly into the wine, providing a luxurious, full-bodied Barolo of incredible complexity, balance and length. An excellent mature Barolo that perfectly illustrates the quality and longevity of one of Italy's most prestigious appellations.
