Historia

The Sordo Giovanni winery produces wines in Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of the Barolo appellation in the province of Cuneo. The family-run winery was founded in 1912 and became famous with the great contribution of Giovanni Sordo.

 

RESPECT FOR NATURE AND THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT

With this philosophy in mind, we farm our vineyards according to the guidelines of modern-day agriculture. We control the green cover of rows using grasses and other plant species which, as well as consolidating the land and preventing it from being washed out by rainwater, increases the organic substances when planting, thus totally eliminating the use of chemical fertilizers and weed killers.
We mainly treat the vines with sulphur and cupreous products such as a bordeaux mixture and, only in the event of particularly serious circumstances, do we make use of other types of sanitary protection, while strictly adhering to the advice and doses recommended by qualified agronomists.


We have solved the difficult problem of waste water by constructing a latest generation waste water depuration plant which enables us to return water to the land devoid of polluting substances. Guided by such principles, which we continue to improve thanks to scientific progress, we hopefully contribute to safeguarding and protecting Mother Earth.

Viiniviljelykset

The winery now owns 53 hectares of vineyards and produces a very wide range of wines. Of great interest are the Crus from 5 different Municipalities that give life to wines each with a different territorial identity: Perno, Gabutti, Ravera, Rocche di Castiglione, Parussi, Monvigliero, Villero and Monprivato.

The soil is extremely suitable for these crops as it consists mainly of calcareous marl rich in microelements.
The microclimate and the ideal exposures favor a perfect ripening of the grapes and to give life to long-lived wines of great evolutionary potential, but also great elegance and aromatic finesse thanks to the significant temperature excursions.

But without the hand of man, such qualitative excellence would not be achieved.

The techniques and knowledge have been handed down from father to son for four generations, who have worked and work in a careful and meticulous way. The farm was founded during the early years of the twentieth century, in 1912 by Giuseppe Sordo, but the turning point towards quality was undertaken by Giovanni Sordo who together with his wife Maria bought several vineyards of Nebbiolo.

Viinivalmistus

Today the tradition of Sordo wines continues with the management of Giorgio and his daughter Paola, the fourth generation; are taking the company to the highest levels with national and international recognition, with an eye in particular to the defense of the earth, following the suggestions of modern agriculture.

In fact, for the Sordo winery, environmental sustainability and biodiversity is an absolute priority, which is why chemical fertilizers and herbicides are not allowed in their production.

It should not be surprising that this is a completely traditional company in processing: in fact the tradition requires long macerations with a ‘submerged cap’, and nothing could be more classic than the subsequent aging in Slavonian oak barrels of great capacity to embellish, but also preserve The varietal character of Nebbiolo.

But the results speak for themselves: excellence, classicism, fidelity to a great tradition, are a truly winning trio.
