RENZO SEGHESIO
RENZO SEGHESIO
TERROIR AND FAMILY TRADITION
The Seghesio family has been dedicating experience, knowledge and craft to producing and refining premium red wines in Monforte d'Alba for more than a century.
Renzo Seghesio has worn many shoes, farmer and winemaker, cartographer and former mayor of Monforte d’Alba: upon studying winemaking in Alba, Renzo has received a master degree in biology from the University of Turin and, since returning to Monforte in the 1960s and founding his own Winery, his intent and focus have been dedicated to the single goal of growing and selecting the best possible fruit from the unique terroir of the family parcels.
Since 1968 Renzo has gone from making his first wine in his family's garage to realease over 70.000 bottles per year from the own-grown grapes of the family estates currently spanning over 14 hectares of land
Renzo Seghesio has carefully selected and acquired unique terroirs dedicated to the production of his wines: the Pajana della Ginestra, in Monforte d’Alba, Bricco Chiesa and Roggeri in La Morra and Sanche-San Bernardino in the heart of the Roero and Arneis appellations. They represent an intuition, yet the expression of a careful and uncompromising choice
The unrivalled quality of Renzo's wines is the product of many factors: the attentive care of the vines, the accurate selection of the grapes, the meticulous work in the cellar and, chief among all, by the unique characteristics of Renzo’s terroirs. Thanks to his long and extensive experience as winemaker, Renzo Seghesio successfully combines in his wines unique excellence and typical and traditional style
