Located a short walk from the center of the small town of Barolo is immersed in the vineyards as well as the adjacent Restaurant and Hotel also family. Currently the Company is conducted in organic farming certified by the fourth generation. Proponents of tradition, we are convinced that today the best way to respect the spirit consists in not a priori close the door to innovation, particularly if this enables us to better protect and enhance its typical wines of Langa, the characteristics of the grapes and the various terroir.
The company's philosophy is to produce single-variety wines looking better vineyard with appropriate pruning and thinning accurate. We practice the use of green manure and compost that enhance the vitality of the soil and we use light equipment that reduce compaction and fuel consumption. Such meticulous care for the vines, with appropriate pruning, has preserved in excellent health so that some strains have reached the venerable age of 70 years.
With manual harvesting, carried out with great care, we try to pick the grapes at the right degree of maturity. In fact, they will then find all the harmony and balance of a great wine. In the cellar, we try to accompany this quality until the bottle. We work with a light hand, control temperature and spontaneous fermentation. The aging for wines that need it is traditional, in large casks made of Slavonian oak, with the planks bent on fire but not roasted.
The wines are aged in wood are neither filtered nor clarified. Ten years ago we decided to use for the closure of a significant amount of our bottles in an innovative glass stopper which provides, in our opinion, more guarantees respecting the typical characteristics of our wines. Read more

We believe a noble Nebbiolo variety that develops the power gracefully. |
