Tenuta Capri Winery: A Gem in Monferrato Asti

Located in the heart of Monferrato Asti, a UNESCO World Heritage site, Tenuta Capri winery is a testament to generations of dedication to viticulture. Founded by Bernardo Franco in 1900, the winery has been a family affair, with his son Bruno Pierluigi continuing the legacy by crafting wines since 1980. The winery's commitment to quality reflects a deep respect for tradition and the unique terroir of the region.

Exceptional Wines from Pristine Grapes

The vineyards thrive in clayey calcareous soil, benefiting from a sunny microclimate ideal for grape cultivation. Barbera, the flagship grape of Piedmont, flourishes here, alongside Chardonnay and Grignolino, which contribute to their acclaimed red and white wines. The Barbera d’Asti DOCG wines are crafted from fully ripened red-berry grapes, harvested in mid-September to ensure optimal flavor.

A Winery Celebrated Across Europe

At Tenuta Capri, only the finest grapes are selected for winemaking. After pressing, the grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by a six-month refinement period and an additional six months of aging in the cellar. This meticulous process has earned the winery numerous accolades in various wine competitions, including an impressive score of 84 out of 100 for their Barbera d’Asti DOCG Capri from Mundus Wines. The winery's reputation continues to grow, making it a respected name among wine enthusiasts across Europe.
