Color The colour is ruby red, with garnet reflections.
Perfume The nose is rich in black berry fruit: cherry, blackberry and plum, with distinct hints of spices such as cinnamon, cloves and black pepper.

  • Oenologist: Andrea Conti
  • Bottles produced: 200.000
  • Hectares: 25
Casa Di Mirafiore is located in Serralunga d'Alba (Cuneo), in the Piedmont region. The winery was founded at the end of the 1800s by Count Emanuele Alberto of Mirafiore, son of Vittorio Emanuele II and La Bella Rosin.

Since 1878, Casa E. Di Mirafiore has been overlooking this UNESCO world heritage landscape with his estates in Barolo and Serralunga, the heart of one of the world's most famous wines: Barolo. It is also thanks to Casa E. Di Mirafiore that the world is aware of Barolo. It is in fact the first winery to export Barolo worldwide.

This estate is synonymous with quality, as it is home to two of the best Cru vineyards in the Langhe: Lazzarito (on one of Serralunga d'Alba's most magnificent slopes) and Paiagallo.

In this town, Serralunga d'Alba, tradition is never forgotten. Even today, the style of Casa E. Mirafiore is defined by fermentation in concrete tanks and enormous Slavonian oak barrels for ageing.
