ABOUT FONTANASSA:
?The winery is located in Rovereto di Gavi, in the heart of the historic area of Gavi D.O.C.G. of the Municipality of Gavi. The first bottles were produced in 1988 with the arrival of Marco and Roberto Gemme in the winery and tanks to the cooperation with the oenologist Gaspare Buscemi. Fontanassa is an old fortified farmhouse from 16th century. Already in a sharecropping contract dated December 27, 1634, the cultivation of white and red grape vineyards is mentioned. Over the centuries it was owned by important Genoese families until 31 December 1921 when it was bought by the current family.”
ABOUT SALVANO:
“The origins of the Salvano cellars date back to shortly after the mid-20th century. At that time viticulture was not the only activity of the farm and in fact they cultivated wheat, potatoes and hazelnuts. However, it is possible to establish in the 1960s the beginning of the transformation of grapes into wine suitable for sale and trade. Angelo Salvano begins the production of wines in the “Grillo” farmhouse among the vineyards of Diano d’Alba, in the heart of the Langhe. Its products, the result of hard work in the vineyards and dedication to a hard and rich land at the same time, begin to be known by many. Immediately after the war, the iron will of his son Saverio allowed him to expand the cellar and move to Valle Talloria. From here begins the bottling of the wine, previously only sold and distributed in small barrels and demijohns. The name Salvano becomes synonymous with quality wines, finding success throughout the North of Italy.”
