TIBERIO

One of the most exciting of the new wave of Abruzzo producers today, Tiberio was founded by the passion of Riccardo Tiberio, who having worked extensively at one of the region’s largest cooperative wineries, discovered a plot of rare 60-year-old Trebbiano Abruzzese vines in Cugnoli, 15km east of Abruzzo’s mountain region and 30km west from the Pescara coast. Riccardo’s children Cristiano and Antonio now run the estate, making careful massal selections from the old vines and pursuing clean, fresh and varietally accurate expression of Abruzzo’s native grapes, currently all vinified only in stainless steel.
