Tiberio

Tiberio was founded in 2000 by Riccardo Tiberio, and the estate released its first labeled bottles in 2004. Since 2008, it has been led by siblings Antonio and Cristiana Tiberio, with Cristiana Tiberio in charge of winemaking.

Located in Cugnoli in the province of Pescara, Abruzzo, 350 meters above sea level, the estate includes 30 hectares of vineyards. Vineyard age ranges between 25 and 90 years, and Pecorino vines were planted in 2000. Grapes grown are Trebbiano Abruzzese, Pecorino, and Montepulciano. Vineyards are propagated exclusively through massal selections without clones, practicing dry farming without irrigation. No pesticides, herbicides, or plastics are used in the vineyard operations. Must is obtained through gravity-based static free-run draining, and fermentation and aging take place in stainless steel tanks. Spontaneous fermentations are conducted exclusively with indigenous yeasts, and wines are bottled without fining. Its wines include white wines and Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, which do not undergo malolactic fermentation.
