From this winery
  • Start up year: 1878
  • Oenologist: Mariacristina Oddero, Luca Veglio
  • Bottles produced: 160.000
  • Hectares: 36
We have a country. We have a territory. We have, above all, deep roots that go back to the 18th century.We have a great piece of history to tell. It is the history of our family and of viniculture in the Langhe, of its wine cellars and vineyards. It is a story of the dedication of a people and a territory whose wines are represented by the masterpieces of Barolo and Barbaresco. It is a tale that we like to tell to all wine lovers who come to visit the place where our history came alive.

The history of today’s winery is inextricably tied to that of Giacomo Oddero, born in 1926 and grandson of the first Giacomo in the family (whom he was named after). Under Giacomo’s guidance, Poderi e Cantine Oddero took on its current productive configuration, extending vineyard property, increasing bottle production, and upholding a high quality that today is recognized worldwide.

The legacy of Giacomo Oddero is carried on today by his daughter Mariacristina, who entered the family business near the end of the 1990s, and grandchildren Isabella and Pietro, who represent the seventh generation of a family with over a century and a half of vinicultural tradition behind them.
