Our story

Everything started by chance, as every important story, with our passion for nature and genuine things.

In 2004 we found our Cascina Roccabianca surrended by 16 hectares of land cultivated and partly covered by vineyards, hazelnuts and fruit trees, partly covered by a wood of chestnut and walnut trees that overlooks fields used for forage; a little bit wild place where wild animals as deers, foxes, martens, badgers can be seen. Passion that has been turned into agricultural enterprise.At the beginning it was quite difficult and hard because we didn’t know so much about agriculture, winemaking and farming. In particular we have to thank the teachings of “Dorino”, the old owner, that helped us and taught us how the nature should be protected.

Combining the practice, the study, readings and courses we gave birth to our project. Over the years the old vineyard was preserved a very important patrimony of biodiversity in its kind,  has been  expanded with new species of grapevine of Barbera, the renovated cellar, orchards with old varieties of trees have been recovered and we got the organic certification.

Our farm is under renovation.

Flavors of Piedmont to drink and eat.

Inserted in a hilly area, the farm Roccabianca preserves the features of the piemontese landscape. The forest with the vineyard behind the farmhouse overlooks the valley of the river Erro, river that comes from the nearby Liguria and follows a stretch of the Beigua Park to end up in the river Bormida through the beautiful thermal town Aqui Terme. From our hills you can see the “Badlands” and make beautiful walks on foot or by mountain bike.

The company is family run and very ‘environmentally sustainable ‘: the water is provided by natural wells, the wood to get warm comes from our forest and The electricity from renewable sources. Cultivation is organic. You can find vegetables, depends on the seasons,  herbs, chickpeas, potates, eggs. With fruit not chemically treated we prepare the delicious jams and sweet and sour sauces which can be enjoyed at breakfast or with cheeses.

Wines and jams can be purchased on-line or directly into the farm by appointment.

Our winery is the fusion between past and present: from the modern equipments together with the tradition we get a unique wine made from old vines. But good wine, born firstly in the vineyard, good practices that respect the rhythms of the seasons, the natural and healthy growth of the vines grown without the use of toxic substances to the environment and to humans.

Three are our priorities: the protection of the land, the quality of the product and its delicacy.
