Bel Colle Srl
(Winery in Barolo)

Provides 6 wine tastings and winery visit from €30.00
Bel Colle was born in 1978 from the will of the Pontiglione and Priola families, who at that time chose to invest in a peripheral territory, that of Verduno, yet rich in potential. It was a happy and far-sighted choice, which, thanks to the efforts of an enlightened oenologist, Paolo Torchio, led Bel Colle to become one of the most important wineries in Verduno, the first Italian producer of Verduno Pelaverga and one of the landmark symbols of the rebirth of this area. In the 1990s, the choice was made to invest in the native grape varieties of the Langhe, Nebbiolo for Barolo and Barbaresco, Barbera and Dolcetto. But Bel Colle was also far-sighted on whites, giving ample space to Arneis, Roero's princely variety, Favorita, and Nascetta, a rare indigenous variety of Novello. Under the leadership of Paolo Torchio, the winery's style was distinguished by its ability to produce clean, highly elegant wines with an austere femininity and finesse that made them instantly recognizable. Since 2015, Bel Colle has been owned by the Bosio family, which has relaunched the purchase and arrangement of the vineyards, focusing production on the highest quality expressions of the territory: Barolo, Barbaresco, Langhe Nebbiolo, Barbera d'Alba and Barbare d'Asti. At the same time, it relaunched quality work focused on native white wines, including Alta Langa, Piedmont's iconic Metodo Classico. Today the Bel Colle winery is run by Luca Bosio and Mario Albrito. Luca represents the new generation of the Bosio family, the courage to take new paths, and the desire to expand the vineyards in the most suitable areas, experimenting with the creation of new labels. Mario, on the other hand, is the historical memory of the winery. Born in 1963, he is a veteran of Langhe wine, with more than 40 years of harvesting behind him. A student of Paolo Torchio and a follower of his "native" oenology, he has been at Bel Colle since the early 2000s, a true expert on the terroir of Verduno and the surrounding hills. Their task is to put more than 40 years of winemaking excellence to good use through wide-ranging sustainable viticulture and winemaking that respects differences. An awareness that is combined with careful parceling of vineyards, from which to obtain single vineyards and labels that are increasingly representative of the inseparable bond that binds the Langhe to its wines.
