Azienda Agricola Bes

Once upon a time......this is how a fairy tale begins, isn't it? We met and, over a glass of wine, under a starry sky, we began to dream.....we are a family, a family a little special. BES, besides being the acronym of our surnames (Balocco and Scheda), also means Bisogni Educativi Speciali (Special Educational Needs) as well as Bere e Sognare (drinking and dreaming). It’s been about 10 years since our life had to adapt to special needs that require a lot of patience. Special needs request to know how to wait with confidence and fight against every kind of adversity to reach slowly, very slowly, little results very important for our daily life. Needs for our little children, for nature, and for our vineyard that has to be daily cared for with love and ......effort! This is our wonderful world that we learned to love and we are still learning to unconditionally love. Observing, listening to and understanding the language of our vine and children is essential for us. Respect for nature and the surrounding environment is the first step. We decided to undertake this new life (imposed from a certain point of view) with energy and desire to satisfy the needs of nature and of our young and wonderful Dede.

Right from the beginning we have been very careful about complying with environmental regulations relating to a "green culture" ( we would like to leave the next generations our land free of any unhealthy substance) and we took the decision to convert the lands and vineyards to organic production. BES is a very small winery located in the gentle hills of Monferrato region, in the municipality of Treville. It consists of 6 hectares of land of which 2,5 of vineyards. The soil of the vineyard is originated from marine sediments. A terroir limestone, clay, alkaline, and poor of nourishment that gives our wines pleasant fruity notes and strong minerality.
