Castello Della Mugazzena

About the Winery

I'm Santo Gentilcore, founder and owner of Castello della Mugazzena. Our journey began in 2012, revitalizing abandoned vineyards. After four years of dedication, we celebrated our first harvest in 2016. Today, we cultivate 6 hectares of vineyards and produce eight distinct wines that reflect the unique terroir of our region.

we have Chardonnay and Pinot noir and with them we make metodo classico: one extra brut blanc de blanc Chardonnay and one rose with chardonnay and Pinot Noir

other grapes are Vermentino, viogner and Syrah used by itself or in blend apart the syrah that it is used alone

Informative, casual and fun!
After a few hairpin bends and a dirt road at the end, we reached the location. We were welcomed in a friendly manner. When we started with the first wine (white), there was already a table of food ready to be enjoyed. First came Italian explanation, then English. After the first wine, we visited the place where they kept the machines and barrels and got lots of explanation. We returned to continue with the red wine. After that a bruut. We got to visit the vineyard and even got to taste the grapes right off the plants.
