Pqlin-azienda Agricola Battaglino Angelo
About the Winery
Located at the gateway to the Roero, overlooking the Langhe, in Castagnito, is Pqlin Winery, a family business with a 100-year tradition, since our grandfather Angelo, known as "Piculin," because the youngest of his brothers, began making wine for his family and later for friends, who appreciated the passion he put into tending the vineyards.
The same passion that passed from my parents Eleuterio and Michelina, has been passed on to me Margherita, who will accompany you on a journey that will first let you discover how we produce and afterwards taste our wines; both in our cellar and in our vineyards.
Pqlin where the Q, the protagonist of the logo, replaces the syllable /cu/, the beginning of a new day and a new winery. The sign of the sun rising among the hills of Roero marks the dawn of a new generation, ours, the fourth is waiting for you.

Excellent
Detailed tour with a simple explanation of winemaking, easy to understand even for those who are not in the trade.
Wonderful wines, it's impossible not to take some away!!!
Keep it up!!!
Pulin, but great!
The tasting allowed us to try all their wines, among which those aged in oak stand out; the accompanying food was more than satisfactory in both quantity and quality.
Good value for money for the tasting.
Attached Relais.
Tasting recommended... The Roero is extraordinary
Must try: Arneis Cortine, Roero, Langhe Rosso and Passì
Tasting
Little enthusiasm, what a pity
Upon our arrival, the first thing said by the very young owner is that the winery is not visitable because of the harvest. I politely point out that perhaps they could have avoided accepting reservations, especially since having booked the day before, the harvest had already started and they knew it. Smug and unpleasant replies. Expressions of annoyance when at the fourth wine we ask to be able to change the glass. We are told that the four-wine tasting was booked while we had booked the seven-wine one. With ONE table I expect that there can be no confusion about what was booked, there was no one else. Excellent, very pleasant wines and quality accompanying food. I would have given a higher rating had it not been for the unpleasantness and rough manners, also because I appreciate small businesses. Just a table for two, I expect kindness and cordiality. Having purchased the excellent wines, we asked for directions on where we could go for an aperitif, since the venue was closing. We were recommended a place that was closed.
Perhaps, being a small business, I expected less smugness and more desire to share one's passion.
Tasting with a spectacular view
The quality of both the food and the wines was excellent, everything was well-prepared and absolutely in line with expectations.
The staff proved to be kind, welcoming, and always available, helping to create a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
An added value was undoubtedly the view: simply amazing, it made the experience even more special.
Overall, an experience I recommend without a doubt!
Wonderful day
Excellent experience
Excellent and wonderful discovery of Roero wines
The view from the vineyard is incredible, just like their wine.
We greatly appreciated the welcome, the kindness, and the tour offered by the host.
You could feel the passion and love he had for his wines.
The wines were excellent and paired well with the cheese and charcuterie platters.
Pqlin offers well-made, tasty, complex, and distinctive wines.
In short, a top-notch experience and wines.
We recommend the Roero Arneis, the Nebbiolo d'Alba, the Alta Langa, and the Passito, which are wines little known outside of Piedmont but are absolutely excellent.
The tasting accompanied by small bites is a must-do choice.
