Our family has always been dedicated to agriculture with a Langa and peasant DNA. We are in Treiso, a
township that became independent from Barbaresco in 1957, located in the heart of the production zone
of one of the top three Italian DOCG, the Barbaresco, son of King Nebbiolo. It is the grape varietal that
more than any others has defined and will continue to define the history of our hills and of the national
and international viticulture. We are the heirs of this land and of this vine.
The spirit of continuous research in the vineyard, and afterwards in the cellar, plus passion, commitment
and innovative dynamism are our firm bases. A little example are the three tanks where we collect the
rains for around 300.000 liters of water that we use – instead of using the public one – to make our
treatments into the vines. Without forgetting our agricultural equipment with tractors of the latest
generation that permits a remarkable energy saving. And the pensile perennial garden upholsteries made
on the last cellar extension, that permit a more natural control of the different building spaces’ temperatures.
Meanwhile into the cellar, the beginning of a research by selecting an indigenous natural yeast to keep, use
and breed for the future years.
And last but not least the conversion we’re now adopting, to obtain all our vineyards cultivated with a
sustainable agriculture.
All the evolutions and changes we are conducting every day are combined with the pride of having
reached the third generation of viticulturists. Our philosophy has not changed, however: we only focus on
original varietals that are typical of our land, particularly Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto, which represent
about 85% of our production. All the grapes that we use come from the 42 hectares that we own, which
are widespread among the villages of Treiso, Barbaresco, Neive, Neviglie and Alba.
We are able, with the help of knowledgeable colleagues, to directly supervise the entire production cycle,
from pruning to marketing and sale of around yearly 250,000 bottles that we sell in more than 60
countries into the world, namely:
