Grandpa Giuseppe came to la Morra in 1948, the family Altare was originally from the town of Dogliani, even if old documents and wills, translated by a close relative archpriest, spoke about some Jewish descent from Palestine. Giuseppe bought the farm in La Morra, the estate covered 5 hectares, a few nebbiolo, barbera and dolcetto vineyards, and some peach, hazelnut and apple trees, but those were times when orchards gave higher yield and more profit than vineyards.
