The story
Based in the hamlet of Loazzolo, the estate has been linked to the Galliano family, with archival documents cited on the winery's website dating back to 1790 and with land acquisitions in the first half of the 19th century. In the 20th century the family developed Moscato winemaking and, from the 1980s, began experimenting with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to produce sparkling wines using the Traditional Method.
Production philosophy
Production focused on expressing the terroir and on controlled experimentation: meticulous vineyard care, low, selective yields and extended bottle aging to enhance elegance and longevity, with a strong multi‑generational family commitment.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located on a natural terrace of the Langhe di Loazzolo, at elevations ranging from about 410 to 580 metres above sea level. The site is influenced by the Marin wind and features tuffaceous, sandy and calcareous soils, conditions considered favourable to Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Riesling.
