The Estate
The GIOVANNI MANZONE ESTATE is located in Monforte d’Alba, Piedmont.
The winery has a productive vineyard of 8 hectares and uses only estate-grown grapes. Our production is limited (45,000 bottles- 3,700 cases- per year are produced in average). All wine making is carried directly, in order to obtain natural and high quality wines.
Our wines are unclarified and unfiltered.---------
The HISTORY of this family-estate began in 1925 when Manzone Giovanni purchased “Ciabot del Preve”(House of the Parish Priest of Castelletto). In 1965 was produced the first bottles from Stefano Manzone e Giovanni Manzone. Little by little they purchased important vineyards on the beautiful hill of “Gramolere”, in Monforte d'Alba.
In 2005 Mauro joined his father Giovanni, after having completed the studies at the historical Oenology School of Alba”.
