    The wonderful, small family winery in Monforte d'Alba

    The winery is located in Monforte d'Alba, one of the eleven municipalities in the Barolo wine-growing region and stands for Barolo wines of great character, structure with elegance and longevity. Today the company owns a total of 5.5 hectares and leases an additional1 hectares of vineyards on the San Giovanni vineyard, which also makes it possible for the winery to produce very high-quality Barolo single-vineyard wines.

    The winery has been practicing organic viticulture for years and only uses sulfur, verdigris or copper sulphate to treat the vines in the vineyard. Since Gianfranco took over the management of the winery, one of his first actions has been to drastically reduce the number of grapes per hectare, which favors better ripening of the grapes, making them healthier and more resistant to the climate. If this state is reached, these are the best conditions to be able to produce Barolo wines of the highest quality.

    The winemaking takes place with short maceration times in temperature-controlled vertical fermentation tanks and then the aging in third-occupied barrique barrels. The family continues undeterred on its way and its development and with daughter Vittoria the next generation is already in the offing the starting blocks.
