THE HISTORY AND THE SITUATION OF OUR WINE-GROWING ESTATE    

 

Our wine-growing estate was founded in 1924 by the grand-father Cavalier Bartolomeo. He had learned from his father how to get wine from one's own grapes.
Since then three generations went by, and most of the vines have been replaced, only the Nebbiolo grapevine remain, from which the Barolo is trodden. The wine cellar has been modernized: we have now the possibility to control better the alcoholic fermentation. Moreover, we have introduced the aging in barriques.
Our wine-growing estate is situated in the center of the Barolo area, on the hills of Garbelletto, in the commune of Castiglione Falletto. You can find us coming from the Alba ring road, direction Barolo, 300 m after the crossing Barolo - La Morra.

Pass a nice afternoon or evening together with us in our wine-cellar. Please call us before.
