The firm
The firm is situated in the north part of Abruzzo, in central Italy, along the valley of the Vomano River and on the surrounding hills, in the towns of Cellino Attanasio, Atri, Pineto and Roseto.
It extends on about 680 hectares, of which 170 are planted with vines, fruit trees, and trees for lumber, and about 500 are used for animal raising and industrial business.
The family
The property belongs to the Barba family, which is made up of the three brothers Vincenzo, Giovanni, and Domenico Barba and their families.
Giovanni, who has a degree in agriculture, is the chief executive officer and works full time, with his assistants, in all sectors of the business.
Domenico, who has a degree in economics, is chief executive officer of S.I.A.I. S.r.l., which is an important firm in the field of brick production.
Vincenzo, electronic engineer, mainly occupies himself with consultancy and organization of information systems, but also works in all fields of the family business.
Heritage
The land has a deep heritage in the wine sector and benefits from an adapt microclimate with long sunny days and cool evenings in the summer and sea breezes in the winter; these conditions are favourable for wine production, nurtured by passion and great know-how.
Barba wines don’t depend on luck, but are the result of attention to detail during every phase of production, from the vine to the winery.
It is just this combination of simple principles and good ideas which defines our unique style, always in search of quality.
