Information
Agricola Bertolino looks after the vineyards and the land around Bricco Borio's hill, in Costigliole d'Asti. From here we transform grapes from numerous typical south-Piedmont varieties, trying to preserve the essence of every different fruit, resulting in the most authentic expressions of the territory.
