Description
This Barbera grape matures well on these hot and sun-drenched hills and transforms into a wine which improves with age, thanks to its fresh and lively acidity. This is why a pure Barbera is produced only when the quality and the quantity of the harvest allows it.

La Stoppa has been around since the end of the 19th Century and previously belonged to a Genoese shipowner who was, even at that time, in producing quality wines, using International grape varieties such as Sémillon, Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Pantaleoni family bought it in 1973 and continues along the road already mapped out but also invested in traditional grape varieties such as Barbera, Bonarda and Malvasia. Today the company covers 50 hectares of which about 30 are vineyards. It specializes in the production of aged red wines and dessert wines. The management company is headed by Elena Pantaleoni with the collaboration of oenologist Giulio Armani.
