AboutBarbanera
Barbanera began in 1938 with a wine business established by Altero and Maria Franceschini. Their son Luigi learned the trade on long journeys to Rome and other markets; in 1978 his sons Paolo and Marco inherited the enterprise and formed Enogest. Export to Germany followed in 1982, and the company adopted the Barbanera family name in 2007.
The winery is based near Cetona in the Valdichiana, beneath Monte Cetona, and works across several Italian regions. Italian Wine Brands acquired the Barbanera companies in 2022.
