2016 Filippo Broccardo I Tre Pais, Barolo DOCG, Piedmont, Italy

About Broccardo

A young heart, but with strong origin in the past: in this way it is possible to define our family wine cellar. Filippo, Laura and Federica decided to collect everything that has been handed down from their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents: the respect for the land, the passion for a job that doesn’t give no peace, technics to cultivate naturally vineyards, a natural vinification observing the right time and they bottled all this for you so that you can taste it in the right way of living: “Nunc est bibendum, nunc pede libero pulsanda tellus” (Orazio, Odi, I, 37, 1).

Our vinification is focused on the purity of each wine, preserving the fruity sensations, without altering the features of our wine, so that you can perceive the characteristics of Langa area. In addition, we follow the EU directives (Law integrated production techniques no. 214) which provides the practice of grassing and chemical treatment containment.

Our vineyard are located in three of the most popular countries of the Langhe suited to the production of Barolo wine – Monforte d’Alba, Barolo and Novello. Our vineyards cover about 7 acres facing south and southwest. The composition of the soil, where they are planted our vineyards, is characterized by clay, tuff, sand and silt left by the withdrawal of the Sea Padano about 16 million years ago: the alternation of these layers gives to our wines excellent finesse, structure and elegance. Our wine cellar is located in Monforte d’Alba, which from 2014 is considered Unesco patrimony.
