Our vineyards cover 45 hectares of land along the sinuous hills that run through Serra de Conti, Montecarotto, Arcevia as far as Morro D'Alba and Cupramontana. The peculiarity of these areas are the clayey soils rich in water that rise in a strip of land enclosed between the Adriatic Sea, to the East, and the Apennine chain, to the West.
Since the beginning,, the Santa Barbara winery has had two goals: the revival of the autochthonous grapes, Verdicchio Castelli di Jesi, Montepulciano and Lacrima di Morro d'Alba, and the creation of wines with an "International taste" that have originality and great personality such as Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
