A century in the winery between tradition and innovation<\/p>\n\t<\/div>[vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1645011777838{margin-top: -5px !important;}”]At the center of Annunziata, a small hamlet of La Morra<\/strong> and a land of inestimable value for the production of Barolo, is the Fratelli Ferrero winery. Founded in 1930, the company carries on the ancient family traditions, concentrating all the knowledge and passion on producing the typical Langhe wines using modern technologies focusing on quality, sustainability, and tradition.<\/p>\n The winery owns 4 hectares of land; one part of the vineyards surrounds the winery, while another is located in the nearby Manzoni hamlet, where our family moved in the second half of the 19th century. Here, even today, there is an old cellar dating back to 1750 used for the aging of Barolo Bricco Manzoni<\/strong>, a Barolo of sublime quality, produced only in the best vintages.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”52px”]Book a visit<\/span><\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”qodef-custom-image-layout” css=”.vc_custom_1572962655742{padding-top: 189px !important;padding-right: 8px !important;padding-bottom: 115px !important;padding-left: 4.5% !important;}” offset=”vc_col-lg-6″ column_responsive_padding_1024=”100px 0 70px” column_responsive_padding_768=”100px 0 70px” column_responsive_padding_680=”140px 5% 43px”] Fratelli Ferrero Winery<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div> For a Barolo of sublime quality, produced only in the best vintages.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”22px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1644860298697{margin-top: -8px !important;}”]The old family house<\/strong>, built in 1750 with a special technique, is in the hamlet of the same name. The house’s foundations, consisting of the cellar in which Manzoni Barolo is aged today, were built by digging the furrow of the walls in the ground and resting the bricks of the vault on the earth. Once the structure was completed, the cellar was emptied, which still bears the characteristic signs of the construction: earthen floor, irregular vault, and walls of “sas,” sand that once solidified is extremely solid and stable.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”52px”]Discover our Barolo<\/span><\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” content_text_alignment=”center” el_id=”History”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1570807368485{padding-top: 6px !important;}” column_responsive_padding_1440=”26px 0 0″ column_responsive_padding_1366=”26px 0 0″ column_responsive_padding_680=”66px 0 0″] in short<\/p>\n\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1569941466564{padding-right: 3.5% !important;padding-left: 3.5% !important;}” column_responsive_padding_768=”0 5%” column_responsive_padding_680=”0 13%” column_responsive_padding_1024=”0 5%” column_responsive_padding_1440=”80px 3.5% 0″ column_responsive_padding_1366=”80px 3.5% 0″ column_responsive_padding_1280=”80px 3.5% 0″][vc_row_inner gap=”10″][vc_column_inner] Early days<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t Our history began in the early 20th century in the small town of l'Annunziata, when Settimo Giuseppe, Renato's maternal grandfather, started the business.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t The Fifties<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t Lorenzo Ferrero, Renato's father, restored the family vineyards, grafting native rootstocks onto American vine rootstocks, the only ones capable of resisting the aphid.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner gap=”10″][vc_column_inner] The Third Generation<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t Consolidating his work with the introduction of Doc in the 1980s, Renato devoted body and soul to the company he inherited from his father, even later with the help of Nina.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t The Fourth Generation<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t The two brothers have taken over the winery, bringing new ideas and innovating production methods without losing their eye for tradition.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” content_text_alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1569229489082{padding-top: 130px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”34px”] Barolo winemakers for four generations<\/p>\n\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” content_text_alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1661520786685{padding-bottom: 40px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner row_content_width=”grid”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1645547528883{padding-right: 16px !important;padding-left: 25% !important;}” offset=”vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n The history of the Ferrero winery began in the early 20th century in the small town of l’Annunziata, when Settimo Giuseppe, Renato’s maternal grandfather, started the business.
