From this winery
  • Start up year: 1914
  • Oenologist: Claudio Icardi
  • Bottles produced: 330.000
  • Hectares: 48
In the early 1960s, Pierino began producing wine from his own grapes, setting out on an increasingly quality-oriented path. Today, his children Claudio and Mariagrazia run the company, following in their father's footsteps.

Our farm is located in Castiglione Tinella, in the province of Cuneo, on the border between the lower Langa and the Monferrato. Here, the hills extend as far as the eye can see, making Castiglione Tinella one of the most wine-growing municipalities in Italy, with over 90% of the land cultivated as vineyards. The rocks that descend towards the Tinella and Belbo valleys frame the carefully combed rows of vines and the patches of woodland that interrupt the geometry of the vineyards, offering a unique setting.
