Our goal is to operate as best we can while respecting tradition and transferring, as much as possible, the character and identity of the terroir of origin from the vineyard to the bottle.

We age our wines mainly in large oval barrels made of Swiss and Austrian Stockinger Oak, mechanically very hard woods that do not release intense scents and aromas (such as Vanilla, typical of other Oaks), allowing the wine to be the real protagonist, but at the same time allowing the right macro-oxygenation.

We produce “Lessona,” the wine offered by Quintino Sella in 1861 for the toast to the Unification of Italy, and “Coste della Sesia.”

For our finest wines we plan about three years of aging in wood, and after bottling we age them about nine meters below ground level for at least another three to five years.

Although it is a small estate, Pietro subdivides the various “crus” as the French often do, coming up with about ten labels for only 7 hectares and three grape varieties grown: Nebbiolo, Vespolina and Erbaluce.
