Trediberri "Barolo del Comune di La Morra" Piedmont, Italy 2022

FROM POLANER SELECTIONS:

THE WINE: 100% Nebbiolo.

THE PRODUCER: In a region like Barolo, steeped in tradition and history, it is rare to find a newcomer who has burst onto the international Piedmont scene like Trediberri has. The winery was started only recently, in 2007, when its three partners, Nicola Oberto, Federico Oberto and Vladimiro Rambaldi purchased a 5 HA plot of vineyard in the Cru of Berri which is located on the extreme western edge of La Morra in the Barolo Zone. Their first commercial vintage, in fact, was 2011.

The name “Trediberri”, meaning “three from Berri”, is a tribute to the three partners in the project. Nicolà Oberto (along with his life partner, Stefania Drocco) is the face and the dynamic driving force behind the project. He is a young, energetic, passionate, and wine-loving producer with a deep knowledge of the world of great wine, which in turn informs his approach in everything he does in the cellar and vineyards. Nicola’s father, Federico, brings the wisdom of the ages from his many years working as a cellar master at the famed Renato Ratti winery in La Morra, starting in the 1970’s until his “retirement” there in 2005. Federico was also able to contribute the family holdings, 2.8 HA in the famed Crus of Rocche dell’Annunziata and Torriglione. The third partner, Vladimiro Rambaldi, who splits his time between running a bank and helping to direct and guide the financial well-being of the winery, is also immersed in a life and love of wine.
