Antonio Scarpa founded the company in 1900. Born in 1879 on the island of Burano, in Venice, he moved at a young age to Nizza Monferrato to trade wines. Two connections made him stay: one was with a magnificent land with a still unexpressed winemaking potential, the other was his love for Ernestina Ottavia Deantonio, who became his wife in 1908.
In 1949, Antonio did not have heirs and was close to retirement: he then decided to sell the winery to Mario Pesce, a young producer from Nizza Monferrato who Antonio deeply respected and considered as a friend.
Mario Pesce had no children and welcomed his nephew Carlo Castino to the winery: the latter had just finished his studies at the Scuola Enologica di Alba, the most important of its kind in Italy at the time.
Starting from 2018, Scarpa began planning its expansion to enhance the company’s solidity and the prestige of the wines produced. Read more
