Produttori del Barbaresco Table of Barbarescos

A table of all the Barbarescos made by Produttori del Barbaresco.

N = Non-Reserve, R = Reserve ("Riserva" in Italian), RS = Riserva Speciale, X = None Made,
* = something distinctive or qualified about that wine (click on link for more info).

Before 1980, Riserva and Riserva Speciale were distinct designations. All Barbaresco required (and still requires) one year in wood. Barbaresco Normale requires a total of 2 years of aging before release. Pre-1980, Barbaresco Riserva required 3 years of aging before release and Barbaresco Riserva Speciale required 4 years of aging before release. See 1964 for a year when all three designations were made.

Post-1980, Riserva Speciale ceased to exist and Barbaresco Riserva took on the requirement of 4 years of aging before release.

Please see the FWG Produttori del Barbaresco home page for much more information about the winery, its history, and some additional wines and labels (such as Casotto and Martinenga).

If you have a photo of wine that I do not, or you have a better photo than the one here, and you would like to contribute your photo, please email it to me (kenvastola "at" gmail). For these Produttori wines, I am also quite interested in obtaining photos of the back labels, so even if I have the front label, I would appreciate a photo of the back label.

Produttori makes a basic Langhe Nebbiolo and a basic Barbaresco in almost every vintage. In good vintages, they make single-vineyard Cru wines, usually as Riserva. Their general policy is to make all the single-vineyard wines or none of them in a given vintage.

If you are interested in how many bottles of each wine have been made in each year, see my Quantity Chart. This is a chart similar to the one below, but giving the number of bottles made of the riservas (both 750ml and magnum) in each vintage in which they were made.

Starting with the 1982 vintage, there are nine such Cru wines. The nine Crus (i.e. special single vineyards) that are bottled by the Produttori are: Asili, Moccagatta (known as "Muncagota" starting with the 2007 vintage), Montefico, Montestefano, Ovello, Pajé, Pora, Rabajà, Rio Sordo.

Here are photos of all 9 Cru Riservas from 2005, from 2008, from 2009, from 2011, from 2013.

2014 Riservas are expected to be released in January 2019. At this point, Cru riservas look likely for 2015 and 2016.
