The producer

Manzone Giovanni

The Manzone family has farmed the same land in Monforte d'Alba since 1925, now in its fifth generation with Giovanni, Mauro and Mirella. Around 8.5 hectares on the Gramolere and Castelletto hills are worked without herbicides or chemical fertilisers, with spontaneous fermentations, long macerations and bottling on the waning moon. Giovanni also rescued the rare Rossese Bianco grape, gaining it DOC recognition after 30 years of work.
