Out Vineyards

Arione

The arione estate is situated at the southern-most border of the commune of Serralunga d'Alba, at an altitude of approximately 400 meters above sea level, in a splendid southern exposure. This historic Barolo cru is the property of the Gigi Rosso family. Here we find Nebbiolo grapes for Barolo wine and Barbera d'Alba.
The limestone-clay-based soil is ideal for red wines of great finesse, structure and long aging.
 

Moncolombetto

The Moncolombetto estate boats an extraordinary panoramic position, at 500 meters of altitude, it provides a 360-degree view of the entire Langhe wine district. According to legend, it owes its name to the French general Colombier, who positioned his artillery here at the end of the 1700's to bombard the castle of Diano. Today it is an estate of 5 hectares consisting almost entierly of dolcetto, the variety that best express itself in the vineyards of the diano d'Alba doc area.
 

Rocca e Giovino

There are two large estate nestled along the large expanse of terrain on the hilltop of Altavilla d'Alba, enclosed between the Tanaro river and Barbaresco vineyards. The writer Beppe Fenoglio describes this fortunate area "... where the snow disappears before it barely touches the ground". These 17 hectares provide ample space for the planting of various grape varietals: Nebbibolo, Barbera, Dolcetto and Freisa, wich have in common a uniquely intense fruity character.
