PORTRAIT OF THE WINEMAKER:

The story of Podere San Biagio began in the 1970s, when winemaking was not even on their radar. The farm was one of the first in Italy to resume the cultivation of ancient cereals after many years—starting with spelt—and later diversifying into other ancient grains, such as the durum wheat Saragolla and the soft wheats typical of the mountain areas, Solina and Rosciola. Podere San Biagio’s first vineyard, along with an olive grove, was established only a few years later. In 1995, after renovating an old farmhouse dating back to the 1800s, they opened their agriturismo and began developing a number of agricultural activities around it, including the production of olive oil and wine “for their own consumption.” At that time, they didn’t have a proper wine cellar and were what we would call today a “garage winemaker.” As demand grew, they eventually built a wine cellar and a small stone mill, in the early 2000s. Today, with 5 hectares of vineyards, natural winemaking techniques refined over many years, and a wine cellar perfectly suited to their needs, winemaking has become their main activity.
