Wine Dinner with 460 Casina Bric
Thursday, March 20
After decades of winemaking under the Viberti family name, Gianluca Viberti decided it was time to navigate an independent path within Barolo.
In 2010 he purchased 12 hectares — mostly in Barolo proper where he now farms at the highest peaks in the municipality with elevations averaging 460m.
With dedication to organic viticulture, Gianluca is a firm believer in respecting the land in the present and considering its longevity for future generations. An eccentric outdoorsman with a deep connection to nature and respect for history, Gianluca's winemaking emphasis is traditional, with long macerations, indigenous yeasts and large Slavonian barrels. Casina Bric is a translation of “farmhouse on top of a hill,” hence the name 460 Casina Bric.
Please join us and Gianluca Viberti for a great night together tasting his wonderful Nebbiolo-based wines: sparkling, Nebbiolo and Barolo!
Stay tuned—the menu is coming soon!
