The full name of this winery is very curious, Morra Gabriele, formerly Pautasso Vini dal 1880. But there are neither Morra nor Pautasso in the company’s saddle. The latter were the owners of the cellar in Macellai di Pocapaglia, while Gabriele Morra is the grandfather of one of the current owners, the agronomist Gabriele Testa, born in ’81, who had inherited some of today’s vineyards from the Pautassos.
The other owner, Stefano Campaniello, born in ’83, arrived in 2013 and is there to take care of the work in the cellar.
Stefano was then working in the dining room and one day Gabriele found himself as a customer, between one tasting and another that evening the partnership between the two began, and shortly thereafter they would begin working the owned vineyards in the Roero and others rented in Barbaresco. and Neive.
The source of inspiration, among other things, was a book, The Ignorants, written by Etienne Davodeau and the result of the collaboration between a cartoonist and a biodynamic winemaker.
The first vinification dates back to 2012 with grapes coming from Montestefano, while in 2013 the duo can already count on some rented rows in the Ovello Cru, a tiny parcel in reality. Added to these are another two hectares in Fausoni di Neive.
The company continues to grow over the years and soon another hectare and a half will arrive from a sub-area of Bernino and finally a further hectare from the Starderi vineyard in Neive.
Now there are more than three hectares worked in Barbaresco, with biodynamic methodology in the vineyard and natural methodology in the cellar. Theirs are wines that tell the story of the Neive area in an exciting and pure way.
