Come and discover our wines
Embark on an exciting enological, architectural and naturalistic journey through two centuries of Biellese wine history in the beautiful setting of Montecavallo Castle.
You can rediscover the roots of this unique territory by walking on a hillside that has been home to vineyards for more than 800 years, touching the chestnut wood equipment in a winery built two centuries ago, and getting lost in the half-light while observing the collection of centuries-old bottles in the ancient underground wine cellar.
Find out how our wines are made today by visiting the modern winery converted from what used to be the castle's former stables.
Get a taste of our area by choosing from one of our guided tours with tasting, accompanied by gourmet tastings perfectly paired with each wine.
