When, in 1985, Matteo Correggia inherits the family farm from his father, the boom in viticulture is far, and to the left of the Tanaro River fruits and vegetables are grown, next to the vines from which wine for a few close friends is produced.
Matteo is a young farmer fond of the new craft. He works carefully ready to learn and improve in every little thing: a trait that will become characteristic of all his experience. The “Renaissance” of wine, meanwhile, has dawned. Unexpected like a bud on the steak, which yesterday was not there and today explodes. Matteo decided that his project was simple, and for this he would not have given up. The goal? To make, not only to produce, memorable wines. It was not an easy choice. To make in absolute quality, in a land still underestimated because misunderstood, for many people an unrealistic conceit.
