Description

“This wine was created to meet the challenge of uniting International grape varieties with our indigenous Montepulciano. Making wine and seeing it grow well makes us happy and gives a great sense of satisfaction. I want to share this satisfaction with our partners and friends who, over the years, have helped both my winery and me to grow.” (Stefano Antonucci)

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1984
  • Oenologist: Pierluigi Lorenzetti
  • Bottles produced: 950.000
  • Hectares: 45
The name Santa Barbara pays homage to our land, our tradition and those we worship. The history of this place dates back to the 6th century when Senigallia was a Byzantine city and a Lombardic (and therefore "barbarian") outpost was
set up in a nearby village. Since then, that village took the name of Barbara which is where our winery is located today, having the privilege of being housed in an old monastery.

Our winery is located 25 km from the Adriatic Sea and is located on the hills that run between the Misa and Nevola rivers. Here a team of professionals works in the winery and vineyards every day, fuelled by passion, determination and a pinch of creativity so that our grapes maintain their beauty and express the quality of our land.
