At the beginning of the 90s, during a visit to this region, Alexander Trolf, oenologist, and me, wine importer, were impressed by the beauty of the landscape, nestled in the woods of the Natural Park of Monte Fenera and for the quality of its wines. Convinced that this area was the perfect place to be a wine company, we started to work immediately. In this way, we met Antonio Cerri, one of the last producers of typical and very interesting wines that, until 1991, was producing 25 hectoliters per year. His vineyard in "Campo delle Piane", 0.6 hectares of Spanna of more than 50 years of age, are located high up in the hills, surrounded by woods.
At the time–honoured age of 80 years, Antonio Cerri decided to retire and offered his vineyard and winery to Alexander Trolf and me.
We bought it.
Later, like a puzzle, we added other small plots of land, up to the current 6.5 hectares, grown with Nebbiolo and Vespolina, for the production of BOCA DOC.
Unfortunately, a tragic car accident prevented Alexander Trolf from seeing the realization of his plans, but his ideas and his dreams live in the new vineyard "Meridiana", and the yellow house, the company logo, located in the middle of the vineyard, symbolizes a new beginning.
