About this product
-
Marchese Luca Spinola
Andrea Spinola, the heir to the vineyards owned by the family in the area for centuries, decided to leave a corporate career with a multinational company in Milan and go back to his roots, to the region where he grew up and which he has always loved. The Marchese Luca Spinola vineyards are located in a particularly favourable area, 200 metres above sea level, whose unique exposure ensures the vines receive sunlight all year round. The excellence of the grapes means no ingredients need to be sourced from outside the production area. Situated in Piedmont, the Italian region that produces the best wines in the world, the Gavi area enjoys a special microclimate: just the right distance from the sea, backed by the mountains, pure air and a light breeze.
