Villa Medoro

Medoro is a small village near Atri, in the beautiful hills of Teramo, traditionally suited to viticulture, which overlook the green Adriatic Sea. Here our family has been producing wine since the early seventies, but only in 1997 Villa Medoro was founded, thanks to the impetus and dynamism of Federica, who decided to bet on quality thus opening new horizons for household production. The love of an extraordinary land, the exploitation of native vines and the respect for tradition are the ingredients with which our wines are produced, genuine and authentic expression of our way of being ... people of Abruzzo.

Cantina Barba

The Barba family is considered to have Neapolitan origins.

The abbot Francesco Barba, Neapolitan canonical, under the pontificate of Sixtus IV (1471–1484) had the task of collecting papal tithes.

A prominent figure in the early eighteent century was Carlo Barba. In 1750 he appeared in the ounce registry owner of a large volume of goods in S. Margherita di Atri, in the plains of Casoli and Fontanelle.

The generations that have come and gone in the years to follow have all contributed with tenacity and dedication to the development of land property.

At the end of the 50s, the Cavaliere del Lavoro Luigi Barba terminated the old sharecropping relations and began the direct management of the company first, equipped it with infrastructure and facilities in anticipation of the modern farming and paved the way to the most recent generation.

Today the Fratelli Barba farm, along with the SIAI, which has been successfully operating for 60 years in the field of production of bricks, is still the core business of the Barba family.

Pepe Stefania

My name is Stefania Pepe, daughter of the vinegrower Emidio Pepe, who n 1964 began selling bottled wine, that his grandfather, Emidio Pepe, already in 1899 sold in bulk: Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC.

I am here, in the middle of our vineyards, 7 hectares of Montepulciano and Trebbiano d’Abruzzo DOC 100%, cultivated personally by my father with biological methods, ie without the use of chemical and synthetic fertilizers.

It is time to harvest! We thank Lord that allows us to collect in a few days the result of months and months of painstaking work.

More than 30 years ago my father started the selection of clones of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo to graft on American cuttings (because unaffected by phylloxera), and continues today with the very short pruning (to have a few buds and, therefore, a lower quantity and better quality of grapes per vine), green pruning and, finally, the hand selection of the bunches of grapes that turn into Vino Pepe!
