Notes from Mauro Veglio:

The history of our family is deeply linked to La Morra and to the rural roots of this part of the Langhe, which has succeeded in reinventing itself within the space of just a few decades, discovering an international vocation. 

The quality of wine is created in the vineyard, thanks to work that always respects the natural balance and terroir. We have embraced sustainable organic farming for over 20 years now, with no use of herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. We use sexual confusion to combat pests. We maintain natural cover crops between the rows of vines, with flowers and beneficial plants. This not only combats erosion but also helps encourage the return of harmless insects which contribute to the health of the ecosystem, as well as the spread of natural yeasts which settle on the grape skins.

In 2013 we installed anti-hail nets in our vineyards, and these are key to preserving the quality of the grapes in view of climate change: as well as affording protection against hail, the nets protect the grapes from the aggressive action of the sun’s rays.
