Andrea Cervini has always lived in the vineyard. When he was 13 years old, he used to help his uncle working in the vineyard. At that time, they were selling mostly grapes and making little wines to private people sold in damigiane.
 

Andrea Cervini is passioned with natural wines, without any doubts hisgreat respect for la Stoppa and friendship with Giulio Armani gave him the energy to start doing his own wines.
In 2006, he planted new vineyard, there is nowadays 4 hectares divided in Malvasia di andia Aromatica, Barbera and Bonarda, and built the winery.

The vineyard is mainly planted on clay and limestone soil, at an altitude of 200 meters high in Val Trebbia area. There is no use of any pesticides in the vineyard, only sulphur and cupper. This vineyard is divided in 4 different small plots, including an old one planted in 1970. Density is quite high to keep producing good quality grapes: 5 000 vine per hectare.
