The best Italian wineries.
Pecchenino agricultural company was founded at the end of the eighteenth century, has always been family–run, and its estates has been handed down generation after generation.
Documents about it date back to the beginning of the nineteenth century, when the company, run by grandfather Attilio, covered a little more than 8 hectares. Since the 70s, when the company was taken over by Attilio’s son Marino, and after, in 1987, by his sons Orlando and Attilio, new plots of land and vineyards were purchased, forming now a surface of more or less 25 hectares, of which 22 in the Municipality of Dogliani and 3 in the Municipality of Monforte d’Alba. The area of Dogliani is characteristic for the Dolcetto grape variety, whose presence is recorded even in 1432 in a manuscript founded in the municipal archives.
The company is cultived with Dolcetto (70%) and for the rest, with Barbera, Nebbiolo, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc grape varieties. The company, moreover, owns plots of land in the Municipality of Monforte d’Alba, one of the most suited areas for the production of Barolo wine: in the San Giuseppe locality, where the cru “Le Coste” is produced, and in the Bussia locality, where the cru “Bussia Corsini” is going to be produced.
A passion, that for wine, that is indissoluble for the Mossio family. So as the bond to land, to labor, and to these vineyards located in enviable and wonderfully scenic locations. The history of this company began with grandfather Francesco and grandmother Francesca and continues with Luigi and Ennio Mossio with their wives, both named Margherita, and then with their children. Today Valerio and Remo, aided by their nephew Michele, are personally committed to the production of Dolcetto d’Alba, Bricco Caramelli and Piano delli Perdoni. Barbera, Nebbiolo and Langhe Rosso, the results of a happy union between Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto. Mossio, therefore, is the common work of a family that, with different roles, finds all involved towards one single goal: the quality of wine.
From the vineyards owned, mostly planted in good positions, the winery produces its Dolcetto. Quality has been the goal for several years, but it can be said that the Mossio family have reached also goodness, especially by virtue of contained yields and an increased expertise in the process of winemaking.
Franco M. Martinetti, is a leading player in the international food and wine panorama, a gentleman of other times, equally at ease among rows of vineyards in Piedmont and with the most prestigious chefs, in the most important wineries and in the main sector institutions worldwide.
His professional career began not among wines, but as an advertiser. At the same time, he deepened his passion for wine and food and, in 1974, he began to produce wines. Since then, his career course, as the one of its products, has been full of successes, witnessed by numerous international awards. He is the only Italian to be part of the Acadmie du Vin de France, and since 2003 he is President of the Acadmie Internationale du Vin.
The agricultural company was founded in 1920 by great–grandfather Bepi, and develops with grandfather Salvatore and father Oreste.
In the 90s, Claudio, with the help of his brother Mauro and his mother Piera, gives continuity to the tradition and the passion for land and wine handed down by his ancestors. The decision to focus firmly on Barbera and Timorasso are a message that speaks of the importance of quality and of a region that is increasingly strong. Other varieties that are grown here are: Cortese, Freisa and Croatina, from which we expect a lot of satisfaction. The visit of the company allows us to admire the views that the Tortona Hills offer and to taste our own wines of different vintages.
Our winery began its production in the 50s under the guidance of Giuseppe Damonte. Guseppe was a dreamer, he loved his country, and understood that Roero had great potential. Today, Malvir is led by the sons of Giuseppe: Massimo and Roberto, who have inherited from their father the same dream and the same passion.
Over time the company has grown and conquered new markets, but its family management remains; Massimo takes care of the vineyards and Roberto of the cellar.
Giacomo, son of Roberto and Patrizia, has completed the Oenology School of Alba and is taking his first steps in the company of the family, while the children of Massimo and Federica: Lucia, Francesco and Pietro, are still in compulsory schooling.
Patrizia, the wife of Roberto, runs the “Villa Tiboldi” farmhouse inn, with nine elegant rooms in the heart of the Trinità vineyard.
Cantina Viticoltori del Monferrato is a small cooperative of winemakers founded in 1998, with a specific project: making of the experiences acquired individually in viticulture, terroir management, selection of grapes, and wine–making, the keystones for the production of top quality Barbera del Monferrato.
Vocation, challenge and passion: these are three essential aspects for Cascina Fonda. Vocation for the territory and the wine-growing since 1963, year in which Secondino Barbero founded the company exploiting his experience in the oenological field.
The challenge was won thanks to his sons Massimo and Marco, who have bottled their wine since 1988; they focused on Moscato and since 1991 they have processed all the produced grapes.
Finally, the passion is for the sweet taste of Moscato, which is produced by the Barbero brothers in the sweet and dry versions Moscato d'Asti and Asti Spumante (since 1991).
This “sweet passion” encouraged Cascina Fonda to focus especially on Moscato, a wine produced on the hills between Mango and Neive, symbol of a land that gives unique fruits.
The Barbero Brothers also produce other wines: Dolcetto, Barbaresco and Brachetto. Their products are marketed in Italy, in the United States, in Holland, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden and France.
From 1995 to 2000 the new cellar was developed according logistic and modern principles, to support the processing of Moscato, a young and fresh wine.
Massimo and Marco Barbero continue to work to maintain the quality that characterized all the wines produced by Cascina Fonda.
Giorgio Carnevale di Alessandro Carnevale Winery is a family-owned business that has been producing high-quality wines for several generations. Their vineyards are carefully tended to and their grapes are hand-picked at the perfect time to ensure the best possible flavor. They take great pride in the production process, using traditional methods combined with modern technology to create exceptional wines. Each bottle is a reflection of their passion and commitment to creating a memorable experience for their customers.
Lorenzo Accomasso has been for many years the president of the Council Winery of La Morra, the favorite place of many wine lovers. The proposed tastings and events that are organized there are of high level, enhancing the territory and its wines. The credit for this goes to Lorenzo and to his employees who run the winery, in which all the producers of La Morra are represented. The wines of Lorenzo, in particular its Barolo, Rocchette and Le Mie Vigne, stand out for their character and great fidelity to tradition. These are wines that tell more than others the passion of a man for his Langhe, hills kissed by Bacchus. In the tasting of this year, Barolo Rocchette 2004 has asserted itself with fierce pride.
Azienda Agricola Abbona Marziano is a winery that produces high-quality wines using traditional methods combined with modern techniques. The winery is family-owned and operated, with a deep respect for the land and the environment. Their grapes are carefully selected and harvested by hand to ensure the best possible quality. The winery offers a wide range of wines with unique and complex flavors that reflect the character of the region.
The Azienda Agricola Anna Maria Abbona winery is a family-owned business that has been producing high-quality wines for several generations. They have a deep respect for their land and use sustainable farming practices to ensure the preservation of their terroir. The winery is known for its commitment to producing wines that reflect the unique characteristics of the grape varieties grown in their vineyards. They pride themselves on working with traditional winemaking methods while also embracing new technologies to create innovative blends. The resulting wines are elegant, balanced and expressive, and are sought after by wine enthusiasts and collectors around the world.
The “Sparkling” Consortium is son of three well–known Valle d’Aosta companies: Cave du Vin Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle, Crotta di Vegneron and Co–Enfer. From the seat of Arvier the couple Gianluca Telloli – Andrea Costa guide this project with determination, thanks to their profound experience of local vineyards. The promotion of the altitude bubbles line, particularly cured with appropriate presentations, bears fruits. The two new Metodo Classico, produced in the Valley, are sumptuous and elegant. Worth to mention are the processing of the Ancestrale, rare in Italy, and the two labels of the Charmat method, for now produced in Veneto, from blends that have changed, on the pursuit of an ever greater appeal.
A vineyard run with great care and according to the principles of integrated pest management, with minimum treatments thanks to particular microclimatic conditions, that confirm the quality of the production of this winery. Pinot Grigio is the grape variety on which we concentrate carefully, with the development of a soft and interesting “lev en barrique” version, of a tasty and refreshing version in steel, and of the one obtained from overripe grapes. This year, the trilogy of these wines is orphan of the sweet Mitsigri 2007, which was not produced because of a limited quantity of grapes. Very interesting is the pulpy Rouge Coteau Barrage, in which the dominant Syrah takes on a more traditional touch with a percentage, although limited, of Fumin.
Les Granges takes its name from the nearby ancient village. Curiously, Grange is also the surname of Liana, who leads the company along with Gualtiero Crea. Talking of small dimensions, in this case, is not a manner of speaking: its vineyards cover just two and a half hectares, but are located at the top of a hill, in full sun, in position that is privileged as well as a necessary condition for the ripening of the grapes at these latitudes (and altitudes). The productive activity began about twenty years ago, without speculative aims, but just not to disperse the wine heritage planted by ancestors, giving the grapes harvested to a cooperative. The turning point was in 2005, with the construction of a wine cellar within the company, that allowed complete autonomy in production.
Gostolai Wine Company began its activity in 1988, just for fun, but with the aim to enhance more and more grapes that the land of Oliena and its particular microclimate produce.
The name Gostolai comes from the locality of the same name where the family vineyards are located, that provided the grapes for the production of our first wines.
Over the years, the company has increased and diversified production, acquiring grapes from other growers who found rewarding and gratifying to give up their production, which by the way was subtracted to the anonymity which was first intended.
Currently, we produce five DOC wines and seven IGT wines, as well as three types of grappa.
