Produttori del Barbaresco is a Piedmontese winemaking cooperative founded in the late 1950s, initially with 19 Barbaresco farmers. Today, the membership has grown to 50, and the vineyards extend over approximately 110 hectares spread across the municipalities of Barbaresco, Neive, Treiso, and San Rocco. Production focuses exclusively on Nebbiolo wines.
The Nebbiolo grapes come from vineyards located in the prestigious Rabajà cru. Here, the vines enjoy a southwest exposure and are rooted in clay-limestone soils with sandy veins. After harvest, fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature, and the finished wine then ages in oak barrels for 30 months before bottling and a further 9 months of bottle aging.
In the glass, Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco Riserva Rabaja reveals an intense ruby color with garnet highlights. Its aromatic profile is elegant and seductive, with ripe fruity notes of cherry, blueberry, and raspberry, subtle hints of violet, and earthy, undergrowth notes. On the palate, it is complex, structured, and harmonious. It has a full body, a pleasant fruity intensity, and good acidity that refreshes the palate and balances the tasting experience. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, and the finish is long and persistent with fruity, undergrowth notes. It pairs deliciously with beef bourguignon and game.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
