Enrico Serafino
From this winery
  • Start up year: 1878
  • Oenologist: Paolo Giacosa
  • Bottles produced: 400.000
  • Hectares: 60
The Enrico Serafino winery was established in 1878 in Canale d'Alba, in the heart of one of Piedmont's most interesting wine-growing areas, the Roero.

Founded by Serafino Enrico, an entrepreneur and landowner, the winery soon became one of the most important in Piedmont and among the first to spread the region's classic wines throughout Italy and abroad. In addition to the classic Piedmontese wines of the area, first and foremost Roero, Arneis and Barbera, the company produces great Barolo and Barbaresco from grapes from the nearby Langhe, noble and elegant wines in which the Nebbiolo grape variety expresses its characteristics at its best. But Enrico Serafino's pride and joy is the selection signed 'Cantina Maestra', in which the red wines Pasiunà and Parduné stand out, the highest expression of excellence of the Roero territory, and the Metodo Classico Alta Langa DOC sparkling wines.
