Cerequio

Planted with Nebbiolo grapes selected from one of the most historical vineyards in the Barolo region, Cerequio is located in the town of La Morra and its slopes face south to southeast, reaching an altitude of 350m above sea level. Due to this ideal exposition, as well as the typical soil of the Langhe hills, the grapes from Cerequio produce a wine of intense garnet-red, with a bouquet of wild berries, hints of tobacco and a dry, warm, voluptuous sensation on the palate.

Morino

Facing east on the medium-low part of the La Morra hillside, the microclimate of the Morino vineyard with its high temperature ranges and low-potassium limestone soil makes this area suitable for the growing of aromatic fine wines with good acidity. The beloved Chardonnay from Barolo (La Morra) is grown here, famous for its dry, velvety and elegant characteristics.

Tantesi

This vineyard, located at an altitude of over 400m, occupies the south-west facing slope of the Monforte d’Alba hillside. The soil at the top is mainly sandy, while the remainder is packed with clay and lime. Grapes from this vineyard include Barbera for the Sovrana proprietary wine, and the Nebbiolo is used for the Barolo DOCG and Dolceltto DOC.

Vigneto Boscareto

Located at an altitude of over 400m overlooking the village of Serralunga d’Alba, the soil on the south-eastern slope has a high clayey marl content, producing wines packed with extract, alcohol and bouquet, while the south-west slope has sandy infiltrations which lighten the structure, making it more suitable for the production of fragrant white wines.

 

Vigneto Corda della Briccolina

This small vineyard facing south-west on hills overlooking the village of Serralunga d’Alba is the home of Beni di Batasiolo’s award-winning Cru. It is marked by clayey soil packed with grey marl and, on the surface, sprinklings of sand soften the final product, leaving the wines with dry, full and well-balanced tastes, soft, velvety tannins and an intense length and aftertaste.
