- Production

A small, family-run winery located in the Alta Langa area, Piedmont, Italy. We reached the Slow Food certification in 2016 for our Dolcetto d'Alba DOC, and we work to marry a natural approach to modern oenological techniques. So, we also obtained the National Integrated Production Quality System (SQNPI) paper, a testament of our effort in saving the unspoiled nature of these heroic hills. Our production is totally focused on heroic-viticulture. Slow food presidium since 2016.
