Scarpa Wine is a family-owned winery that has been producing high-quality wines for over a century. Their vineyards are carefully tended to create wines that express the unique character of their terroir. They specialize in producing traditional Piedmontese wines, including Barolo and Barbera, but also experiment with unique blends and aging techniques. Scarpa Wine's wines are known for their complexity and depth, with rich aromas and flavors that reflect the expertise of their winemakers.
Francesco Scrimaglio, at the beginning of the twentieth century, began his business as a winegrower, expanded in the 20s by his son Pietro. After the war, his grandchildren Franco and Mario gave to the company a new impetus and a more wide–ranging dimension. In more recent times, Pier Giorgio, great–grandson of the founder, has consolidated its image and increased its presence in world markets.
The Scrimaglio family has been present in Piedmont since the seventeenth century. It comes from France, where he it was named
Escrimeaux (swordsman) and from where it fled, due the persecution of the Huguenots, during the massacre of Saint Bartholomew, on August 24, 1572.
In the lands of Monferrato (Asti province) it has given its name to an area that is still called Regione Scrimaglio and is located on the border between Castelvero County and the Marquis land of Nizza, where the farm and the historical vineyards of Costa del Sole and Valle del Vento are located.
The “Cascina Christiana” farm is situated in the deepest heart of the high area of Monferrato, 250 meters above sea level, and it stretches on a 5 hectars vineyard area which is part of the prestigious low zone of Barbera Superiore “Nizza”.
The wine cultivation is mainly made up of Barbera d'Asti vineyards, whose growth is helped by the soil and the terroir; addingly, there are three little plantations of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah.
The winery was recently built accordingly to all the recent oenological innovations for very high quality wines production.

Our history is that of a family firmly tied to wine, grapes, to the hills, where our grandparents have worked hard and for a long time, as well as our father in his first youth.
After twenty years, Agostino decided to follow his particular aptitude for applied mechanics to the oenology industry. Despite the business, our family has never stopped cultivating its own vineyard in Calamandrana Alta.
Since 2000, we decided to go back to our roots and now we work full–time to the cultivation of the vine and the production of quality wines.
The company enjoys an exceptional location on the hill of Bricco di Nizza Monferrato, who won our hearts, a few km from the hill of origin of our family.
We have gradually expanded our property while maintaining the old vineyards and planting new ones. The commitment was continuous and since then the production was increased and our wines are more and more popular both in domestic and international markets.
The cultivation of the vines is done with the utmost respect for the environment: we use only products made from copper and sulfur, the soil is worked, we do not use herbicides nor systemic products and a careful attention is reserved to grassing.
Thanks to the attention towards the management of environmental resources, our company has achieved the ISO14001 certification. The yield per hectare is low and ideal to obtain a quality product, of course, focused and balanced.
The harvest, as well as almost all actions in the vineyard, is made by hand and grapes, collected in boxes, are immediately carried to the wine cellar where, after a further selection on a tour of sorting, is vinified.
The winemaking techniques are traditional, with minimal interference of technology, with the intent to maintain and never upset the best that the vineyard offers us each year.
Our intention is to produce the best, in the simplest and most natural way possible, our wine, to be always the real expression of our territory: Nizza, the heart of Piedmont!
