Producer Olek Bondonio - Cascina la Berchialla

PIEDMONT

Cascina La Berchialla is located in one of the most suitable areas for the production of Barbaresco, that is, in the renowned and historic area of ​​Roncagliette. The farmhouse was initially founded by Olek's grandfather, Riccardo, who cultivated the vines and gave the grapes to the producers of Barbaresco. In 1999, Olek took over the reins of the farmhouse after having first studied agriculture and oenology at university, and gaining experience in Bordeaux, Australia, New Zealand and the United States but, above all, having successfully juggled skis and snowboards. Back home he feels ready to give his own imprint to the art of making wine, with his baggage of studies and experiences abroad, but with the awareness and strength of the peasant tradition of the Langa. Thus, it prohibits all forms of pesticides in the vineyard, preserving the vitality and integrity of the soil, and selects the grapes in the summer to keep yields low. In the cellar it makes wine without the aid of selected yeasts but only with little sulfur, no filtration at bottling. A few years ago he rented another two hectares between the towns of Neive and Alba and then began to bottle the Barbaresco, distinguishing the two Crus: Starderi in the municipality of Neive and the home one, the famous and refined Roncagliette.
