Agricola Tiberio was founded in 2000 when Riccardo Tiberio stumbled upon a plot of 60-year-old Trebbiano Abruzzese high in the hills of Abruzzo. Now widely recognized as one of Italy’s most noble varieties, Riccardo was ahead of the times in recognizing the treasure he had found. Now run by his daughter Christiana, Tiberio has made a name for itself producing characterful wines from Abruzzo’s native grapes.
