From our Importer: Monchiero is one of only seven wineries to own a slice of the famed "Rocche di Castiglione" vineyard. This estate has all of the earmarks of one about to "emerge" into the limelight. The family has several generations’ involvement in growing grapes as sharecroppers, then independently beginning in the 1950's, followed by bottling in the '70's. In the '80's, Vittorio Monchiero, along with his wife Daniela, after graduation from enology school, began the modern era. And the latest chapter includes the new "young blood" as their two sons Luca and Stefano are joining the efforts. Aside from the aforementioned "Rocche", the roster of vineyards is quite impressive. Also in Cast. Falletto is Montanello which is exposed much like a smaller Villero a short distance to the north. Then there is Pernanno, which along with Pianta', form the northern strip of the east facing vineyards (very important in the new climate) of the town that ends with Rocche. There are other sites in the commune not entitled to a particualr MGA other than "Commune di Castiglione Falletto". Add to that the MGA's in La Morra, Roere di Santa Maria and Ciocchini where the family's grape growing was first started by Vittorio's grandfather. Some parcels in Roddi and Verduno round things out. These are traditional Baroli aged in large botte of Slavonian oak.
