Description

Cascina Lo Zoccolaio follows exactly the process of tradition. In the vineyard, the grapes are treated with love and respect. Without the use of herbicides, controlled grassing through green manure is maintained between the rows, respecting the rhythms of nature. Harvesting is done strictly by hand, selecting only the best grapes with a lower yield to obtain better quality. This Barolo is a blend of grapes from vineyards located only in Barolo and Monforte d'Alba.

When you arrive in Barolo, in the heart of Piedmontese wine, you are completely immersed in the vineyard landscape. Hills till the eye can stretch, designed over the centuries by man, who has got from those rows food and culture. A true masterpiece, like a paint, which has earned recognition in World Heritage in 2014 with the creation of the UNESCO site "Wine Landscapes of Langhe and Roero"

In the Langa region, on the hills on the right bank of the Tanaro river, every clod has given fruits. Here the wine is never just a product, a merchandise, a fashion. Each bottle contains the history of its population and its territory.

Lo Zoccolaio winery, which takes its name from a village located in the Bricco of Barolo, owns 30 hectares of vineyards of which 14 planted with Nebbiolo grape from Barolo. The vineyards face southwest, on the coast of the Bricco of Barolo. The wines produced from this farm are real jewels, wine masterpieces to make unforgettable every special moment.
