Producer
Rinaldi Pietro
From this winery
The Azienda Agricola Pietro Rinaldi has been producing wines for over four generations, through the constant work of qualifying its vineyards, the utmost care during vinification, the respect of the working cycles and the traditions handed down. Ours is a team of people united by a great passion, always in constant search of quality.

Our newly built winery, set against the hillside, is partly built underground and equipped with state-of-the-art technology: all fermentation tanks are temperature-controlled, the grapes are destemmed using a soft roller to maintain the integrity of the fruit and the pressing is carried out using a low-pressure air pump.

Located around the Cascina "Cichetta", they are of indigenous varieties such as Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo, Arneis and Moscato. In order to maintain the healthiest and most natural environment possible, the rows are kept grassy and the vines are worked mechanically or by hand, avoiding the use of herbicides and synthetic products, respecting the biological and vegetative cycles.

Fertilisation of the soil with green manure allows for a rich and vital grassy soil.
