Decugnano Dei Barbi: A Pioneering Winery in Orvieto
The area of Decugnano, formerly owned by the clergy during the Middle Ages, sits high on a hill in northeast Orvieto. In 1973 Claudio Barbi acquired the land to plant vineyards, naming his winery Decugnano Dei Barbi. He embraced modern winemaking and was the first vintner in Orvieto to produce both metodo classico sparkling wines and Pourriture Noble, the first wines in Italy made from botrytis-affected grapes. His son, Enzo Barbi, continues his legacy at Decugnano Dei Barbi.The Connected Table is broadcast live Wednesdays at 2PM ET and Music on W4CY Radio (www.w4cy.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com).
