Description
Our estate is in the middle of the vineyards of the Cru Scarrone in Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of the DOCG Barolo area. Here, we rebuilt in the 80s the old farmhouse, the only one in the cru Scarrone, and dedicated its cellars to the production and refining of our Nebbiolo and Barolo wines. The grape comes from our five hectares vineyard surrounding the farmhouse. The vines are supported in their growth by the orientation that receives the morning sun, supporting a perfect maturation even in the warmest years The vineyard rises on a calcareous and clayey soil as in the best Langa cru, where elegant and long-lasting wines are born, balanced both in acidity and softness.

More than 115 years and six generations have passed since that first harvest. Over time, the finest Bava Barberas have earned recognition in many countries thanks to the consistently high quality of the estate’s production.
Today the winery is led by Piero Bava, grandson of the founder and widely regarded as one of the "Patriarchs of Barbera." Piero carries on the family tradition together with his sons Roberto, Giulio and Paolo, and his grandchildren Francesca and Giorgio: three generations working side by side to offer, across 55 markets worldwide, wines that speak of Piedmont, authenticity and deep respect for the land.
Dozens of menus created by Roberto Bava for the legendary Bava Dinners — gastronomic events held across all five continents — now hang on the winery walls, bearing witness to the creativity and long, vibrant history of the Bava family. Read more
