In the locality of Pamparato, on the crest of a hill just outside Dogliani, stands the Azienda Agricola Aldo Marenco with a 360 ° opening on the surrounding valleys.
It is therefore possible to imagine how, on clear days, the gaze wanders from Artesina to Monte Rosa, from Bossolasco to Murazzano, with Roddino, La Morra, Monforte in front of your eyes… it is right in the center of this setting that the Marenco family, since now 4 generations, has been producing the great wines typical of the Bassa Langa.
Claudio, the current owner, transformed the peasant spirit of his predecessors, already respectful and attentive towards nature, into organic production: in 1991 the company obtained the Bioagricert certification.
The wines produced are those representative of the territory, with a genuine and convivial spirit, just like the atmosphere in the cellar.

How to participate
Visits & Tastings
A rustic and homely environment, with the excellent company of a born host.
Claudio loves his work in the vineyard, but at the same time he promptly interrupts his duties to welcome visitors with enthusiasm.
Adaptable to the preferences of the guests, the host is happy to open up to tastings in the vineyard or small parties in the cellar, and adheres to the many initiatives of the municipality, including the "Enovago" night event.
The visit usually begins with a walk in the vineyard, in which the choices of organic farming and the various jobs are explained; from here you'll move to the cellar for a tour of the various spaces, and then conclude with the tasting.
