Tenuta il Nespolo is a small winery that produces artisanal and territorial wines from typical Monferrato grapes.
Few dogmas and fixed schemes, we make wine using knowledge in the vineyard and cellar, without overdoing anywhere.
90% is done in the vineyard, for the rest we work to not ruin what the vineyard has given us.
In the cellar we just listen to what the wine tells us using what I like to call ‘conservative technology’.
We don't add or remove anything
to the natural fermentation of grapes in the cellar
Long maceration and aging on fine lees for both whites and reds
to extract all the substance
and the juice of the grape
Steel and concrete tanks for winemaking
and third-passage barriques for the aging

- Vineyards facing south and north-west, on limestone-clay soils of a typical white colour during summer
