Summary

Luciano Sandrone started his career in winemaking with the 1978 vintage, producing just 1500 bottles of Barolo in his parent’s garage. Despite the small beginnings, he quickly became known as one of the superstars in Barolo.  His philosophy was and is to make the best Nebbiolo from various terriors throughout the Langhe, and to do so at various price points.  His basic wines are made with the same care and attention as the top Barolos in his portfolio.  The aim of his winemaking is to respect the traditions of Barolo while employing technological innovations.

Style & Vinification Techniques

Luciano Sandrone uses a combination of traditional and modern practices in his winemaking. Wines are fermented in open top, stainless steel fermenters and then aged in French tonneau of 500 L capacity for 2 years.
