Winery history

The estate was established through the commitment of the Cordero family, who in 2019 acquired the historic Tenuta San Giorgio in Oltrepò Pavese. The estate features a 17th-century tower and an underground cellar with a brick-vaulted ceiling; the family also maintains vineyards in the Langhe, from which they produce the Moscato Exergia.

Production philosophy

Production focused on enhancing the local territory through low‑impact environmental practices and the preservation of biodiversity. Pinot Noir is the estate’s leading variety; parcels are vinified separately to highlight differences in terroir, and winemaking and aging techniques are applied to respect the expressiveness of the grapes.

Terroir and vineyards

Headquarters and main vineyards are located in the Oltrepò Pavese; some Moscato vineyards are situated in the Langhe, in San Giorgio di Castiglione Tinella. Soils vary by area, with limestone, clay and sandy veins.

Awards and recognitions

The winery has received recognition and scores from international publications, as well as awards and medals. Some wines have been recognized by Gambero Rosso.
