ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
From the Producer: "Our winery is located in Localit Pertinace, in Treiso, in the heart of the Langhe hills. This area is also known as the birthplace of Publio Elvio Pertinace, roman emperor, historically recognized as leader of great moral and value and as a honest man. The values of the emperor inspired Mario Barbero and his friends/partners, in 1973, to establish the winery and give it such an important name recognized today internationally.
The focus of the production is mainly Nebbiolo based, ideal for the production of the famous Barbaresco. Over the years, production and sales have recorded notable growth, leading us to significantly expand the structure: the cellar, the wine-shop and the packaging department have been extended to accommodate the growing demand, guaranteeing the same quality that has distinguished us from the beginning.
Pertinace, originally with 13 members all coming from the Treiso area, today is a cooperative with 20 members. Our goal is the cultivation of superior quality vineyards, to offer labels of great prestige and elegance to the market."
