The Story
The history book of the Sobrero Company begins in 1940: the protagonist is the figure of grandfather Francesco who grows grapes and sells them until the 1960s, when with the enthusiasm of the young Settimo and Pier Franco the winemaking begins.
The wine is sold in bulk and in bottles and the first Barolo label is dated 1964. Vintage by vintage the quality of wines grow costantly together with the gradual acquisition of new vineyards to form the current sixteen hectares, enriched in 2008 by the Moscato vineyards in Canelli.
In 2000 Flavio, son of Settimo, thanks to his studies as a winemaker, helps the winery to grow in the sign of tradition with low environmental impact products.
