About Winery and Wines

One family, one business. For four generations, we have been telling the story and interpreting the land of Alba where everything got its start in the early twentieth century and the Langhe, where vineyards and winery are located through our fine, unique wines. We are constantly eveolving business that values past experience and takes a serious view of the future. We are located between Serralunga d'Alba and Sinio, an area characterised by soil rich in marl, lime and clay which retains precious microelements and confers our wines with matchless fineness.

The vineyards before all else. For wines to be an authentic expression of their territory, it is necessary to trust the vineyard and lead it toward self-regulation. This is why our wine-making is minimalist: sometimes we think it's better to not take action. No synthetic chemicals for weeds, defence or fertiliser. No aggressive handling of the soil or the vines. Sowing of grassy plants and legumes in order to revitalise the soil and reduce soil compaction. Use of natural phyto-fortifiers to stimulate plants' self defence.
