The winery is located in Vinchio, in the province of Asti, among the rolling hills of the beautiful Monferrato territory. It is here that Guido Laiolo "Reginin" cultivates his vines with artisanal care, refusing the use of herbicides and chemical fertilizers and working in the cellar with the utmost respect for the grapes, to produce labels with a straightforward character, authentic expressions of the precious combination of vine and territory. At the end of the harvest, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks using only indigenous yeasts. The wine matures for a few months in large oak barrels and is bottled without any clarification, so that the varietal characteristics remain unaltered and intact.
