Country of Origin: Italy
Location: Canelli
People: Gabriele Scaglione, Owner & Winemaker
"I was born in the little town of Canelli,
in Piedmont, halfway between Langhe
and Monferrato wine growing regions.
The rolling hills are bursting with
vineyards where you can’t help but breath in the wonderful scent of the
harvest…’"
In this ideal location for grape
growing, Gabriele’s vineyards,
scattered throughout the best of the
Langhe and Roero regions, flourish
with regional varietals of distinct
quality:
Moscato, Arneis, Nebbiolo,
Barbera, as well as others.
His pure affection for wine, arts and great food brought him back to his roots, back
to where his family has made their home for generations. It is here, in the Langhe
and Roero that he grows his vineyards and dedicates his passion to bringing
excellent quality wines to international markets with pride. After years in the wine
world, working for major producers, he left the rat race for a more authentic way
of life. Attention to details is the cornerstone of his business—the land, the sun, the
care in the fields, these are the building blocks on which to crafting quality wines.
There is minimal use of pesticide treatments in order to offer unique wines that have the richest aromas and flavors. These are wines
capable of seducing and expressing great emotions. And who doesn’t enjoy a
spirited seduction from time to time? |
