Treiso, Barbaresco, Piedmont

Orlando Abrigo

Since 1949

The Abrigo family has grown grapes at Treiso, a few kilometres from Alba, since 1949, bottling their first Barbaresco in the early 1970s. Giovanni Abrigo modernised the cellar and now leads the estate across some twenty-one hectares. Their best vineyards, Meruzzano and Montersino, sit among the highest and coolest sites in the Barbaresco zone, steep and south-facing on limestone-rich soil, each picked by hand and vinified separately. The wines are perfumed, finely structured Nebbiolo with the elevation lending freshness and lift. A classic, family-run Barbaresco address making wines of charm and pedigree.

The Abrigo family has been on the land at Treiso, just a few kilometres from Alba, since 1949, and bottled their first Barbaresco in the early 1970s. Three generations on, Giovanni Abrigo runs the show across some twenty-one hectares, and has gently brought the cellar up to date without losing the family's classic hand.

Their treasures are two vineyards, Meruzzano and Montersino, which sit among the highest and coolest sites in all of Barbaresco. Steep, south-facing, on limestone-rich soil, picked by hand and kept separate in the cellar. That altitude is the secret: it slows ripening and locks in freshness, giving Nebbiolo that lifts and perfumes rather than weighs.

The result is Barbaresco of real charm and pedigree, fragrant, finely drawn, ageworthy, from a family who have quietly been doing this very well for a very long time.

The Indent Offer.

Our pre-arrival offer is open. Under the en primeur system you reserve the wines before they reach Australia, and in return we hold them at heavily reduced indent prices for pre-payment. Quantities are limited, so orders are filled first come, first served.

To secure your indent order, you can purchase the wines below directly through the online store. Alternatively, to reserve any of these wines, you can call or email your order through to the team at Cottesloe. We will hold your bottles at the indent price, with payment required before the wines arrive in August, and confirm pick up or delivery once the container lands.
