The story
Antonio Scarpa founded the winery in Nizza Monferrato in 1900. In 1949, it passed to Mario Pesce; Carlo Castino later helped shape its style and production. Since 2018, Scarpa has expanded its presence into prestigious vineyard sites in the Langhe.
Production philosophy
Scarpa emphasizes Piedmontese identity, elegance and ageing potential. The winery describes its approach as separate, slow and expressive vinifications without forcing the wine.
