La Tosa
The estate “La Tosa” was founded in 1980 by the brothers: Stefano
and Ferruccio Pizzamiglio, with the purchase of 16 hectares of land on the
hillsides of Vigolzone, in Val Nure, an ideal location for the production
of fine wines. In 1985, the winery was built and soon began the winemaking,
and in 1988 their agriturismo ventures began. The vines were planted on
10 hectares from 1980 to 1983. From the beginning, the objective of this
winery was to produce high quality wines with the unique characteristics
of superb high level wines. Growers have only begun to explore the potential
of these slopes that abound in agreeable vineyard sites. The composition
of the soil, which is varied and complex, as well as the climatic and other
environmental factors, are most essential to the production of a premium
wine. The best wines come from slopes 10-25 kilometers above sea level,
where temperature fluctuations heighten aromas. |
