Description

Pourriture Noble is a sweet, meditative wine, made from vineyards blessed by a fortunate microclimate and affected by noble rot (pourriture noble in French). A meticulous, multi-step harvest, immediate pressing, and lengthy fermentation allow us to create this rarity: a precious, exquisite, and strictly natural wine.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it displays a bright, golden yellow color. The nose reveals aromas of yellow fruit, dried apricot, candied citrus peel, licorice root, honey, and elegant hints of moss. On the palate, it is mesmerizing and enveloping, with a citrusy, honeyed sweetness that finds a harmonious balance in the freshness of the sip.

Cellar

“I created Decugnano dei Barbi in 1973 with the aim of producing wines of the highest quality that respect a unique and precious terroir.”

We believe in respecting nature and the land, in the pursuit of excellence, in attention to detail, and in continuous experimentation.

But above all, we love producing elegant, incredibly enjoyable wines with a strong identity that are appreciated by refined customers all over the world.

The origin of the name Decugnano is obscure and lost in the centuries, but as early as 1212, these lands were producing wine for the clergy of Orvieto. They were the lands of the church of Santa Maria di Decugnano.

In 1973, Claudio Barbi found Decugnano abandoned and immediately fell in love with it. The first wines were released in 1978, and success was immediate.



Decugnano dei Barbi produced the first Umbrian classic method (1978 vintage) and the first Italian noble rot (1981 vintage).

We do not use insecticides, botrytis, weed killers or chemical fertilizers.



Vineyard treatments are kept to a minimum, through obsessive attention to climate trends and the health of the vines.
