Azienda Vinicola Gianni Doglia: A Winery in the Heart of Monferrato

Azienda Vinicola Gianni Doglia is nestled in the picturesque hills of the Langhe region and the gentle slopes of Monferrato. Every aspect of winemaking here is approached with meticulous care, from vineyard management to cellar practices. Bruno Doglia believes that wine is a living entity, and even minor oversights can compromise a year’s worth of effort. The estate spans 10 hectares in Castagnole delle Lanze, Asti, Piedmont, surrounded by small natural woods that provide a thriving habitat for local wildlife. The unique Foehn winds from the Alps and breezes from the Ligurian Sea contribute to the region's distinctive terroir.

Azienda Vinicola Gianni Doglia: A Legacy of Responsibility

Siblings Gianni and Paola Doglia carry forward a family legacy that spans three generations. Their wines reflect the essence of a region celebrated for its culinary and viticultural excellence, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The winery's history began in 1947 when Eugenio Rivella, the grandfather of the current owner, purchased a farmhouse and initiated wine production. In the 1980s, Bruno took over the estate, continuing the family tradition alongside his wife, Marisa.

Where Indigenous and International Grape Varieties Converge

At Gianni Doglia Winery, sustainable viticulture practices support the cultivation of a diverse range of grape varieties. The Barbera grape reaches its full potential here, alongside indigenous varieties such as Moscato, Grignolino, Ruchè, and Favorita. The winery produces a variety of exquisite red and white wines, as well as high-quality sparkling and dessert wines. For wine enthusiasts looking to enrich their collection with unique flavors, a visit to Azienda Vinicola Gianni Doglia is highly recommended.

Small family-run winery. Very interesting proposals, including two "house" wines, Barbera Bosco Donne and Moscato Casa di Bianca (a Moscato that, as suggested, needs a few years of ageing to bring out all its nature). A visit to the winery is recommended to discover this small company (which still produces more than 100,000 bottles a year) and the passion of three generations of winegrowers.

We arrived there thanks to our son's advice, we only booked a short visit with a small wine tasting, due to time constraints. Excellent welcome by a very young sommelier, very knowledgeable and friendly. Excellent quality of the wines, in particular the Moscatos, considering that they had never been considered by us, as a type of wine, suitable for pairing with cheeses; for us they were "ONLY" an accompaniment to desserts...we changed our minds. Highly recommended!!!!

It was an exquisite pleasure to visit the wonderful winery Gianni Doglia. Nearby is the larger winery La Spinetta, but I can only recommend driving a minute further up the mountain to experience Gianni Doglia. We were met with exceptional kindness and hospitality by the hostess, Paola, who is also the owner's sister. Without any prior appointment, she immediately opened up the winery and served a plate of local specialties that perfectly complemented the wines. Paola's passion for the vineyard and the wines is evident in her stories about the production, and she conveys her knowledge in an engaging and educational way. The wines from Gianni Doglia are an experience in themselves. They are elegant and have a phenomenal taste with subtle nuances, testifying to the expertise behind the production of these quality wines. I can highly recommend a visit to Gianni Doglia - it's definitely worth the drive. Thank you, Paola, for the unforgettable experience.

We found the winery by searching on the Internet and were immediately intrigued by the excellent reviews. We can only agree with these fantastic reviews, as it was a truly exceptional tasting of five wines chosen from those available. Special thanks to Silvia who guided us through the tasting, explaining the wines perfectly, making us appreciate them even more, thanks to the thousand facets that characterize them. A more than phenomenal quality-price ratio. An experience absolutely worth repeating!

Highly recommended tasting. We were welcomed by Silvia who accompanied us on the visit explaining the methods of making the different wines. A really charming outdoor patio with a beautiful panoramic view. We chose the classic tasting and discovered a delicious Ruchè as well as Barbera and obviously Moscato, the main reason we came. Very, very pretty, I thank Silvia again for her kindness and friendliness.
