About the Winery

Giacomo Fenocchio

Nestled in the tranquil countryside of Monforte d'Alba, in the heart of Italy’s Piedmont region, lies the family-run Giacomo Fenocchio winery. Renowned for crafting exquisite wines with traditional vinification methods, Giacomo Fenocchio is a place where time-honoured traditions meet modern passion.

Spanning over 14 hectares of vineyards, meticulously maintained to protect the precious biodiversity, the winery cultivates renowned grape varieties such as Nebbiolo, Barbera, and Dolcetto. The vineyards are strategically located in prime areas including Barolo and Castiglione Falletto, which are famed for producing grapes with unique character and utmost quality.

The family’s wine-making philosophy centres around the robust, unique character of the vineyards. Each drop is a remarkable expression of the vineyard’s distinct terroir; every bottle speaks of the year's distinct climate and, of course of the unwavering commitment to the traditional wine-making craft.

The winery itself is steeped in history, inherited by Giacomo Fenocchio from his father in 1964, who in turn had inherited it from his father; it is a living testament to the family's enduring role in Piedmont wine-making. However, the time-tested methods blend seamlessly with modern wine-making technologies, resulting in wines that have won international acclaim for their elegance, structure, and balance.

The extensive range of Giacomo Fenocchio wines features classic Barolos that boast beguiling, complex accents and velvety finishes, as well as Barberas acclaimed for their vibrant acidity, and fruit-forward Dolcettos that delight palates with their lively character and finesse.

In conclusion Giacomo Fenocchio Winery is not merely a wine-producing entity; it's a place where wine enthusiasts can immerse themselves in the vibrant culture of Italian wine-making.
