“Ritorno in” Alta Langa DOCG Metodo Classico Brut Millesimato - Piazzo

Paolo Piazzo, the father of Gregorio Luigi, grandfather of Armando and great-grandfather of Marina Piazzo, was originally from San Bovo di Castino, where he lived and worked as a woodcutter.

San Bovo di Castino is one of the most symbolic places of the Alta Langa, situated at an altitude of about 600 metres above sea level.
Our Alta Langa Brut is called “Ritorno in” Alta Langa because it represents a return to places of origin that remain largely unspoilt, “Ritorno in” being the Italian for “Return to”.
