Estate History: 100 miles northeast of the Langhe, in the hamlet of Maggiora, the Vallana estate was quietly making wines to rival the Baroli of Giacomo Conterno and Bartolo Mascarello. They quickly became known by the savviest of wine collectors and were sought after all during the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. Antonio Vallana’s son Bernardo crafted some of the longest-lived, elegant and ethereal wines in the appellations of Spanna, Gattinara, and Boca.
