From this winery
- Start up year: 1836
- Oenologist: Flavio Polenghi
- Bottles produced: 250.000
- Hectares: 41
In the heart of Franciacorta, in Camignone, lies the centuries-old residence with its 16th-century cellars and adjoining land, which bears witness to the long winemaking tradition that the Barboglio family inherited in 1836.
Emanuela Barboglio developed this wine vocation by planting the first specialised vineyards and adopting the new DOC Franciacorta appellation in 1968.
In 1976 the name 'Azienda Agricola Barzanò Barboglio' was abandoned in favour of the current 'il Mosnel', a dialectal toponym of Celtic origin meaning 'pietraia' in Italian, i.e. a heap of stones, on which the company stands.
At the helm of Il Mosnel is the fifth generation of winegrowers, Emanuela Barboglio's sons: Giulio Barzanò takes care of the technical, production and commercial side; while Lucia Barzanò is in charge of marketing, external relations and administration. The family business is supported by a highly trained staff and experienced agronomists and oenologists who constantly follow production and its evolution. Read more

The inoculation of selected yeasts is carried out for fermentation partly in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and partly in small oak barrels (30%). Malolactic fermentation and racking precede the blending of the Cuvée, which in March, after adding the "liqueur de tirage", is bottled, corked with the crown cork and laid down in the stack for the second fermentation. |
