Description

The first inhabited settlement of Priocca is believed to have been the Colle della Stella (Star Hill), located along the road from Alba to Asti. This hill rises in a sunny and open position over the Tanaro valley, facing Barbaresco. The white clays in this area are the main source of the grapes that make up this wine. Each plot of land also has its own name added, such as Ramarro, Ciliegio, Rosmarino, etc., to delineate specific identities and characteristics.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1996
  • Oenologist: Michele Pasquero
  • Bottles produced: 25.000
  • Hectares: 8
The genesis of Hilberg Pasquero dates back to the encounter between Annette (Hilberg) and Michele (Pasquero) in the early 1980s in Italy. Their meeting united their stories—Annette, a spirited German nurse driven by creativity, and Michele, a product of Roero’s countryside.

Their shared interest in the burgeoning ecological movement and nascent organic agriculture laid the foundation for their harmonious union. Annette relocated from Germany to the Piedmont countryside, finding a sense of belonging.

Together, they immersed themselves in rural traditions, interpreting nature’s signs by observing field wrinkles and sowing cycles in tune with lunar phases.
