Serradenari, a historic farmhouse remodeled by Giovanni Negri in 2001, is the highest Barolo of the world. Giovanni – an author and member of the Italian Parliament – replanted the vines and took the necessary measures to protect its truffle woods. Nowadays, Giovanni is working on a new business, and Giulia has taken his place at the helm of the vineyard, which has been in the Diatto-Negri family since 1880.
Looking onto the land of the Barolo on one side and the entire span of Piedmont on the other, Serradenari offered a refuge for the peasants escaping the Black Death in the Middle Ages. Those peasants brought their savings with them and, therefore, by the year 1400, the place became known as Sara’ ‘Dne, or the coin mountain. To this day, ancient millstones are occasionally discovered in the woods of Serradenari. The village of La Morra probably owes its name to one of those millstones, called ‘Mole’ in the local dialect.
A small patch of land that nurtures both the white truffle of Alba and the minerals that help produce the great Langa wines. Serradenari is a symbol and an reassertion of the double inscription of this land on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Read more
