Pertinace Barbaresco is a prestigious and age-worthy red wine that represents the epitome of quality and tradition in the Barbaresco region. It displays a garnet-red color with hints of brick, indicating its maturity. On the nose, it reveals complex and enticing aromas of ripe red berries, dried roses, spices, and a touch of tobacco. The palate offers a harmonious and well-structured experience, with flavors of cherry, plum, licorice, and hints of leather. The refined tannins provide a silky and velvety texture, while the vibrant acidity adds freshness and balance. The finish is long and lingering, showcasing the wine's depth and complexity.

Founded in 1972 by Mario Barbero, Pertinace is named after the Roman Emperor Publio Elvio Pertinace who was born in the hillside sides of Barbaresco. The Winery, a cooperative, was formed by twelve farmers who over the years had become good friends. Among them they owned some of the choicest vineyard land in the region and supplied grapes to some of Italy's top winemakers. Over time, they developed a shared passion for producing the best wines from their own vineyards, which led to the decision to create a winery of their own. Thus, Pertinace was born. It was with this passion and dedication that the cooperative members jointly invested in the development of their vinification plant, bottling line and aging facilities. View More
