Explore the mighty Nebbiolo grape and the vineyards of Montforte d’Alba with 3 unique Barolos
In 1974, Valentino Migliorini, along with his wife, decided to buy a farmhouse in Monforte d'Alba in the Langhe. Working with the strength of his winemaking experience and his innate ability to stay ahead of the times, in 1976, Valentino created his first Langhe blended wine. Experimentation has marked the entire production of Rocche dei Manzoni, and together with attention to detail, it has led to the winery to become a great interpreter of Piedmontese red wines.
