Piedmontese viticulture is nothing more than the result of lots of little stories made up of families who have preserved the most ancient traditions, a mosaic made up of vineyards and hills, memories and gestures marked by time.
An eternal, unchanging terroir that reflects the identity of our wines because today’s grapes are tomorrow’s wines
The wines of our land are stories of life. They express the hills where they grow, telling the stories of the men who have created them, generation after generation.
The unique terroir leaves an intense mineral imprint on the wines, revealing the charm of Piedmont, its stubborn and tireless temperament.
The perfect combination of passion, farming techniques, microclimate and soil characteristics is essential to bring out the characteristics of the grapes. We have seen our vineyards grow day by day, just as our awareness that the land is our most important resource has grown.
BUT WHAT EXACTLY DOES THE WORD SÖRÌ MEAN?
In local dialect, it literally means sunny, exposed to the sun, and was the name given to positions that were particularly favoured by the local macro-climate and therefore perfectly suited to viticulture.
Mapped and catalogued in the mid-1980s, there are now 76 of these Dolcetto production subzones and they can be indicated on the label.
The 76 Sörì are the pieces of a mosaic called Dolcetto di Diano d’Alba
