Historia

Boeri estate is located in a hamlet called Bionzo which belongs to the municipality of Costigliole d’Asti – a historical town in the province of Asti in the southern part of the Piemonte region. Costigliole d’Asti lies half way between the cities of Asti and Alba, the first one famous for its barbera and moscato, and the second for its white truffles. Only a few kilometers from Costigliole are the towns of Barolo and Barbaresco which are known for their homonymous wines.

In terms of winemaking areas, Boeri estate is positioned between the last hills of Monferrato and the first slopes of Langhe – a hilly area that is renowned for its breathtaking views, historical vineyards and natural beauty. Today Monferrato and Langhe are candidates for the UNESCO World Heritage list.

The history of Monferrato, the story goes, starts with Aleramo di Monferrato, a nobleman and a warrior, who had won a reputation of a “winegrower” among the Italian nobility. Aleramo’s origins were quite humble and his name gained fame only after he joined the army of Emperor Ottone I. Impressed by Aleramo’s valor on the battlefield, the emperor gave Aleramo the noble title of a Marchese and a piece of land. The size of this land was to be equal to a “marca”: an area whose circumference a horseman was able to cover in 3 days. And that is how Monferrato was born. The name itself most probably comes from monx ferrax – the fertile mountain.

To produce wines of the highest quality, it is necessary to give the utmost care to the vineyard and to have the maximum respect for the land, because good wine is made in the vineyard… these are the phrases that are often repeated when people speak about Boeri wines. All the work in the vineyard is done manually and the entire family participates in all the daily activities and tasks. Pesticides are used rarely, only to provide for coverage in case a localized problem emerges. On the rare occasions when a fertilizers is called for, Boeri use exclusively organic and natural fertilizers. Finally, no irrigation is performed on the estate: Boeri leave it up to nature to decide how much water the vines need. The fact that Boeri intervene so rarely and carefully in the vineyard shows their commitment to “natural” winemaking: one that allows the seasons, the terroir and the weather to determine the special and distinctive flavors of each wine each year.

The family is most attached to the historical vineyards of the estate, especially to the oldest among them which was planted in 1936 by Giovanni Boeri, the grandfather of the current owners Giorgio and Roberto. To this day this vineyard thrives, and its fruit is used for making Pörlapà. Since then, the Boeri family purchased additional lots of land on the Bricco Quaglia hill, and today the overall area of Boeri vineyards is 10 hectares of which the vast majority is dedicated to the barbera grape variety, and the rest is subdivided among nebbiolo, chardonnay, moscato and dolcetto.
