Description

The name of this wine comes from the first owner of the vineyards: a female lawyer. A strict, respected and rigid person, to everyone, she was simply the "Avvocata" ("The Lawyer"). It is almost an oddity that a so young Barbera wine evokes such a serious figure.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1892
  • Oenologist: Guglielmo Grasso
  • Bottles produced: 420.000
  • Hectares: 56
The history of Coppo winery is inextricably wound with the wine history of Piedmont. Moreover, it is closely linked to the development of the city of Canelli, known as the capital of Italian sparkling wine and one of Italy’s most important viticultural centres today.

Coppo’s history is one of tradition and bold vision for the future, of sacrifice and innovation. It is a story of the unconditional love that Coppo has for their vines’ origins, for varieties that have always been cultivated in Piedmont, and for old family traditions.

The origins of the winery date back to 1892. For over 120 years, the family has remained the sole owner. Since the beginning, the Coppo family has managed estate vineyards and bottled their wine under the name of Coppo, making it one of the oldest family-run wineries in all of Italy.

In fact, in 2012, the Chamber of Commerce added the winery to the national register of historical businesses, highlighting its uninterrupted activity for over a century in the sector.
