Extreme conditions for winemaking in Pinerolese (Piemonte) at Coutandin.
In 1995, instead of retiring, Giuliano and his son Daniele bought a piece of land in a valley in Piedmont called Val Chisone to revive the traditional but fading viticulture in the area. This monorail was built to be able to work the vineyard and its indigenous grapes in this extremely steep and challenging landscape.
