From this winery
  • Start up year: 1854
  • Oenologist: Silvio Trinchero, Gianfranco Cordero
  • Bottles produced: 150.000
  • Hectares: 32
Since 1900, the production and style of Scarpa wines have been kept intact by handing down expertise through the generations.

From founder Antonio Scarpa to Mario Pesce, from Carlo Castino to Silvio Trinchero: style, elegance and longevity have never gone out of fashion. Because Scarpa «knows how to wait» and continues to write a story of greatness.

Our modern vision is simple: to expand our wine heritage to the most prestigious crus of Langhe and Monferrato and continue producing legendary labels. We believe that winemaking goes beyond the product: it is an emotion. That is why we decided to build the Scarpa Villas, offering an immersive experience among vineyards located in UNESCO World Heritage Sites: a place of luxury and relaxation, where the excellence of wine becomes beauty.

Today our goal is to invest in your emotions.
