From this winery
  • Start up year: 1974
  • Oenologist: Daniele Benevello
  • Bottles produced: 160.000
  • Hectares: 25
The Poderi Gianni Gagliardo winery was born from a tradition of winemakers present in Piedmont since 1847. Generation after generation, the Colla family moved from the Santo Stefano Belbo area, home of Moscato, to the area of great red wines.

In 1961, Paolo Colla moved to La Morra, realising his lifelong dream of producing Barolo. In 1972, Gianni Gagliardo married Paolo's only daughter and soon began working with him.

The bottling of the estate's wines went from amateur to professional in 1974, and since then it has been a continuous evolution. In the 2000s, the new generation gradually came into play. Today, Stefano, Alberto and Paolo work alongside their father in the management and development of the company's projects.

Origin La Morra
Climate The two plots used for Barolo del Comune di La Morra are located nearby on the same hill. However, they are very different from each other. One is a plateau that drifts towards west, it’s very open and exposed, almost a donkey back shape. This allows a lot of energy to accumulate on the grapes and wines. The second plot is made by a south faced amphitheater and a hump. Is this second parcel that gives the elegant side of the blend.
