Careful management of the vineyards is essential to bring high quality grapes to the cellar. The classic Guyot vine training system is utilized and the harvest is manual. The care of the vineyard is precise, marked only by the variability of nature that makes every harvest unique.
Yields are controlled and harvest is manual to guarantee the quality of the grapes. This is the philosophy of Massimo Rattalino: excellent wines can only be obtained from an excellent raw material.
Work in the cellar gives continuity to what happens in the vineyard. Fermentation takes place mainly in steel, while aging in large Slavonian oak barrels is our choice to enhance the elegance of our wines. Only for the more structured Barbaresco and Barolo the large barrel is accompanied by a passage in tonneaux which, thanks to a slow oxygenation, gives soft and pleasant tannins. Read more

Story | Born in Piedmont in the second half of the 19th century like a medicinal wine with exceptional therapeutic properties against cold illnesses. In a short time this wine spread all over Italy, thank to the perfect balance bitter-sweet given by calissaja chincona bark, gentian root, spices and aromatic grasses, that make it an ideal aperitif wine, for meditation and to satisfy the most discerning palates. It has recently been discovered as the ideal partner of the noble dark chocolate and of those sweets that have cocoa as the main ingredient. |
