Serragrilli Barbaresco

The aristocratic tale of Marchesi di Barolo begins two centuries ago in the heart of the town of Barolo. Marquis Carlo Falletti, alongside his French noblewoman wife, began producing wine on the estate. Generations later, in 1929, Pietro Abbona acquired the winery. To this day, the Abbona family owns the estate, which includes not only the central cellars but also 200 hectares of vineyards in the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato regions. Within the cellars lies a wine library boasting 30,000 bottles, including aged Barolos.

The aristocratic history demands royal quality, yet modern times bring their own challenges: the requirement for sustainability, modern technology, and today's wine preferences, which do not favor oxidized, woody, or heavy wines. Adding to this is the fact that wines bearing the names Barolo and Barbaresco are never inexpensive. The philosophy of the estate is encapsulated in two words: expertise and respect. Expertise encompasses all knowledge about each vineyard plot, their grapes, growth, and stages. Respect signifies how diligently the quality of the raw material is preserved and elevated during the winemaking process.
