The vineyards have been in the family for generations: winemaking had already begun in the early decades of the twentieth century with grandfather Modesto and father Dante. From that heritage, Piercarlo built a craft that continues today through his daughters, who currently lead the estate. Three hectares within the Faset Cru are dedicated to Barbaresco DOCG, alongside additional vineyards in Treiso, which produce Langhe Nebbiolo DOC. Vineyard management is based on minimal intervention, with the goal of respecting the vine and following its natural rhythm. In the cellar, clean vinifications are preferred, avoiding any practices that might mask the vintage’s profile. The Faset Cru is characterized by calcareous marl with a significant presence of sand, rich in calcium and magnesium. This composition, combined with the proximity to the Tanaro River, imparts structure, complexity, and elegance to the wines, featuring fine tannins and a delicately spiced aromatic profile.
