TERRITORY
We are in Barolo, in the Langhe area, Piedmont, one of the greatest winegrowing territories in the world. In 2014 these hills were declared a Unesco World Heritage Site, together with part of Roero and Monferrato.
Our winery is right in the heart of the town of Barolo, a small town surrounded by higher hills that protect it from bad weather and excessive flow of air. This peculiarity, combined with a predominantly clay and limestone soil, creates the ideal conditions for the nebbiolo grape variety to fully express itself: here you will discover it has great power as well as refinement, harmony and elegance.

HISTORIC CRUS OF BAROLO
After that, we carry a separated winemaking process for some crus, which are then bottled with the specific geographic mention added to the main designation (Barolo Cannubi, Barbaresco Serragrilli…). In the other cases, they are gradually blended to complete each other for our classic labels, such as Barolo del comune di Barolo, Barolo and Barbaresco Riserva, Barolo and Barbaresco Tradizione.
