OUR HISTORY | Garesio

The gamble

Our passion for wine and nature led us to take a gamble: the purchase of our first hectare and a half of Barbera vines in Incisa Scapaccino, just a few kilometres from Nizza Monferrato. From that gamble came a few thousand bottles of Barbera, vinified in the cellar of a dear friend who believed in us. Some of those precious bottles are still kept in our cellar today — a treasure waiting to be savoured!

The turning point: the purchase of the Serralunga d'Alba estate

The gamble paid off, and so we purchased the Serralunga d'Alba estate, nestled in the Langhe hills, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The property comprised 3.5 hectares of Nebbiolo for Barolo, surrounding the historic cellar.
Over the years, the cellar underwent significant renovations, becoming today’s production facility and the beating heart of our winery.
That same year, our deep respect for nature led us to adopt a more environmentally sustainable approach to vineyard management: we began the organic conversion of our vineyards in Serralunga d'Alba.

The development of the winery

Our passion for wine and excellent terroirs has led us to purchase additional plots of land, all suited to the finest wine production: Barbera and Sauvignon Blanc vineyards in Castelnuovo Calcea (near Nizza Monferrato) and Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay vineyards in Perletto (near Cortemilia). This brings the Garesio winery's total vineyard area to 25 hectares, with an annual production of around 85,000 bottles.
